It's a beautiful day!😀

It was such a beautiful morning here today, I decided to hit the trail a little earlier than planned and headed out before breakfast for my run. A little nippy out still, so was glad of my gloves and top layer. I do seem to be quite a 'warm' runner though and however many layers I start off in, I always end up in my tshirt! How will I cope when the warmer weather eventually arrives (if it ever really does!😮 ). It was so peaceful heading up the railway line and later, meandering through the woods. I caught my first glimpse of bluebells too! Some of my trails were a lot muddier than I expected but I always love a little mud (nearly as much as I love a lot of mud!) My shoes have been dutifully washed and stuffed with newspaper and are drying off nicely in the kitchen! The photos above were taken a few days ago on another of my favourite runs - and those "gentle looking slopes" are actually pretty tough to run up in reality! Happy running everyone😀🏃🏻

Those  slopes don't look at all gentle to me, Sandra. Glad you enjoyed your run today 😀

That looks such a pretty route Sandra! Well done on getting out early and having a therapeutic run in the fresh air!

I am slightly obsessed about cleaning my shoes which is ridiculous when I also seek out and love, all the muddy trails and puddles which I then determinedly trudge and splash through!! It's the sign of a good run - muddy shoes at the end!☺ Then I get them nice and clean and ready to go all over again!😮
