Crab apple alert!!!

Changed my route this morning for w8 R1 and found myself running along a path with overhanging trees. Suddenly found I had to adopt a very strange zigzag style to avoid all the crab apples😵. Anyone watching must have wondered what new running technique this was😂.

Still, I managed to keep going and not only completed 28 minutes but carried on to 30! Naughty I know but what a great feeling to know I can do it.

Lastly, huge thanks for all the encouragement and advice. This is the best forum I've ever joined. I've learnt so much from more experienced runners.

I have to do that to avoid hoss muck 😃. Yesterday I slid on a beech nut or something. Nearly did the splits 😆. You have to watch your step for sure 👍🏃‍♀️

Have fun 👍
