I'm currently on holiday in Cornwall, I deliberately started this before going on holiday because thought it would be nice to do a few beach runs etc.
This morning I got up at 7am and off out I went, decided on the coastal path as thought this may be a good one to start (only on week 3 so no runner yet!). THE wort decision I have EVER made! Forgot how overgrown, sand-duney it was with no proper paths to follow! Up and down steep hills oh my god to put it politely! I was swearing the whole way round!
In the end I ran down onto the beach and ran back that way! During my first 3 minute run I almost, through frustration gave up and went back. Do not know how I managed to do it, if that had of been a 20 minute run I'd have caved and gone back.
Cursing myself for going that way when I'm still a beginner which has now put me off for the rest of the holiday as feel like I'm dying π, but also glad I managed to stick to it.
Does this get easier?! Not expecting it to be a walk in the park but feeling I need to carry an oxygen tank on my back at the minute ππ. Currently sat on the beach rolling around feeling sorry for myself πππ
