Things I never thought I'd enjoy before I started running

Trailing my hand through a rain laden, overgrown, hedge.

There are others but after this mornings run that is THE BEST.

Looks like you found your inner chikld

[pollyp1 Graduate in reply to MichaelH070862]

Indeedy!

We all have one... just some of us have a bigger inner child.. ( mine is out of all proportion)!

For me it's silently singing as I run along to favourite tunes and doing a little dance, it just makes me feel alive. Might look a bit strange but I know I look happy.

[pollyp1 Graduate in reply to Realfoodieclub]

I've been known to do that! Nothing wrong with strange but happy.

Ooh it might depend on the hedge. A holly would be a no-no 😲

[pollyp1 Graduate in reply to Irishprincess]

Err, no. Definitely not holly! I picked them carefully

[McFitty Graduate]

Poetic! How the simple act of running brings out our hidden talents and makes the simplest things joyful.

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate]

Oh yes... I know exactly what you mean.. pure bliss!

I used to hate the wind but now I love a cool breeze on my face.

[pollyp1 Graduate in reply to Madwifecarole26]

I'm actually amazed that I like weather that isn't warm and sunny theses days!

[Sandraj39 Graduate]

Lovely Polly! Know just what you mean🙂!

I ran 4k down our prom early yesterday morning. The feeling of total peace i had after the run, stood on the sea front with the breeze on my face, looking out to sea was what i have needed all year.

[pollyp1 Graduate]

Sounds wonderful. I live in land locked Birmingham and dream of running by the sea.

It really helps with feeling peaceful, glad you found it.
