It has been a while since I last posted but I'm still running and it's getting easier. I ran for 35 mins non stop tonight and got 3.07 miles under my belt. I ran from Gateshead to the Tyne bridge and here is the pic of palm trees along the way ☺

So exciting being free to go where we want for free! Palm trees too, and the beautiful water (looks a little chilly)!

Excellent! That looks like a great route. Flat *and* with palm trees and water -you could almost be running on a desert island beach! ;)

Any reason why they've adorned our quayside with palm trees? Newcastle isn't exactly tropical even at the best of times? 😂
