Holiday Run

A9 hour drive yesterday down to Cornwall. The forecast for today is for wall to wall rain. I was out early running along the front with St Michael's Mount as my view. A lovely run and the rain heldoff . There was a lovely breeze coming off the sea. My legs were a little stiff perhaps as a result of being cooped up in the car for so long yesterday.

Looking forward to more runs later in the week.

Happy runnings.

Lovely. I was in St Ives in July, managed a brisk walk up a hill and a slow trot back down, but it was hot, hot, hot. Hope you have more lovely Cornish runs :).

It has been raining heavily forthe last few hours and we are holed up in the apartment but determined togo out again soon. The piltchard museum is becoming ever more attractive. The wind is due to change next week to the south and blow some of that warm weather in our direction.

A www that makes me feel nostalgic, my mum is in Cornwall and I lived there too. We used to get the helicopter over to the Scilly Isles to see her from there. Have a gorgeous time and enjoy the running, you can't beat it there :)
