I had a 7k run in mind this morning with view of trying for 8k since this was last real day on holiday. Went a different route and ended up at the far side of I fthe beach. So knew where I was and ran the other end. Kept running and ended up getting lost. Had to use Google maps to get me back to hotel. Ended run 6.1k and between walking to a point I knew then ran the rest home I ended up doing 9.2k. I am now like a lobster lol. Enjoy your day

Ps the run was fantastic. Really enjoyed it.

Thanks. Ended up only being a short distance of the main road when I actually look back at it. When your going down streets etc with high raised hotels either side you can get a bit mis placed. 😂😂

Starting to enjoy this warm weather running. May have to do it again some time.

I’ve been lost a couple of times on holiday. It hones your skills and you suddenly become fluent in foreign languages. Google maps helps too!
