Week 4 Run 1

[SueAppleRun]

That’s hot and windy up on the downs but happy we did it

[UnfitNoMore Graduate]

Why do we name high things “downs” and “lows” crazy.

Great job in the heat... a little breeze helps but a wind is a pain... many congratulations on beating what must have been a tough one. Enjoy run 2, let’s hope it’s a bit cooler.

[SueAppleRun Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

Thanks that’s now our track and just under 2 miles the hill is getting easier already

[UnfitNoMore Graduate in reply to SueAppleRun]

I avoided hills for a long time... well done guys!

[SueAppleRun Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

I’ve walked up that hill on and off for 30 years with various dogs but this is for us and it’s so peaceful

[UnfitNoMore Graduate in reply to SueAppleRun]

May have passed you guys on the walk way back when... lovely part of the world which I miss a little. I lived in Havant, Portsmouth and Winchester, but my visa expired and I had to come back up north!

[SueAppleRun Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

Winchester is amazing as is Portsmouth where is north? is it still hot up there

[UnfitNoMore Graduate in reply to SueAppleRun]

I’m from Manchester but living in the extreme north of the East Midlands now... Glossop in Derbyshire and yeah it’s still pretty hot and gonna be hotter tomorrow and Saturday. Roll on Sunday!

[SueAppleRun Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

Yes Sunday is going to be cooler and our next run as going to rest a couple of days and sit in the sun

Nice area to be further north it stays light a bit later

[UnfitNoMore Graduate in reply to SueAppleRun]

You earned that extra day for sure... enjoy the sun, it’s so much better to sit in than to run in 🤣

The hills here called me back... when I first came back up this way I walked over and around kinder scout every day for about six months... the Kendal mint cake may have not done me as much good as it tasted at the time though 🤣🤣

[SueAppleRun Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

Beautiful area, oo I love Kendal mint cake

[Debston Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

Oh god, bloody Kinder Scout! Thought I was going to die up there as a young Venture Scout and it started hailing in a gale! I miss Derbyshire!

[Buddy34 Graduate]

Well done to both of you . Is that where you ran today , the photo 😊

[SueAppleRun Graduate in reply to Buddy34]

Thanks and yes that’s from the top the poppies are fading but views of the sea are wonderful all year round

[Fatgirlslim19 Graduate]

Is this the one you were aiming for? Wow, well done you!!

[SueAppleRun Graduate in reply to Fatgirlslim19]

Yes we march up the hill and puff but once we get to the top the track undulates so a bit of downhill then the road bit is straight down

[Fatgirlslim19 Graduate in reply to SueAppleRun]

Fabulous! That's impressive x

[SueAppleRun Graduate in reply to Fatgirlslim19]

I am looking forward to doing it on my day off in the morning instead of after work

[Fatgirlslim19 Graduate in reply to SueAppleRun]

Oooh I bet that will be lovely first thing!

[Muddypaws Graduate]

Beautiful views and great start to Week 4! Well done in the hear, and uphill too!

[SueAppleRun Graduate in reply to Muddypaws]

Thank you the heat was tough but we loved it

[Granspeed Graduate]

Oh, lovely. 👏🏼 A reward for that uphill start. Well done indeed. 🎉👍🎉

[SueAppleRun Graduate in reply to Granspeed]

Thank you it’s the third run there and the hill is slightly less of a challenge getting stronger legs already

[Granspeed Graduate in reply to SueAppleRun]
