Where do you run ?

Maybe once you’ve finished your run you could post a photo of your surroundings ? I’ll start the ball rolling.

I run on mostly flat farmland with a short warm up walk to get there. Running in the evening means I get to see the sunset, but the wind is always my enemy.

I live on the outskirts of a town. I have a 3.2K, 5K and 7K loop which I use and is great as it’s on paths and late in the evenings or during the winter there are street lights. Some of the route run down along a river which is nice. But the rest is pretty urban. I’ll take a pic the next time I do the loop.

I live by the seaside, so that’s where I run! I just try to change up the beaches every now and again so I don’t get bored 😀

Can’t post a picture... but I do almost all of my running near the hills of the Peak District... occasionally I even go as far as running up part of one of them 😂

I mostly run in Sherwood Forest. I'm really lucky that i live so close to so much conutryside and woodland. Occassionly if its really dark I'll run the streets but i try not to.

Don’t think I’d like to run in a forest when it’s dark.... I’ve read too many fairy tales 😄

Apparently you can’t post photos in the replies. I didn’t know when I posed the question. You’ll just have to be descriptive 😄

Hi so I live on the Isle of Wight "very hilly" so I tend to go down to my local cycle track (old railway line) that runs beside the River. It is beautiful down there as one side is woodland and the other the river. It is nicely flatish too. Since starting C25K have noticed how the seasons have changed with the succession of wild flowers. It is a pity I cannot post a picture on here as it is a truly beautiful place.

I’m on the edge of Leeds so urban but even running from home I can get to trails and woodland pretty quickly. A short drive and I can be by the Leeds-Liverpool canal. I try to mix it up a bit 👍

I never thought of driving somewhere to run, but maybe in the future. I’ve got a lot more fields to run first yet.
