Ended Week 8 on a high ๐Ÿ„

Had a beautiful run around Dale Dyke Reservoir. A bit different to my usual road running up hill and down dale. This was more of a trail run, but felt more like fell running at times! ๐Ÿ˜ญ The scenery is stunning and I'm so lucky that this is on my doorstep.

The mushrooms are in abundance too ๐Ÿ„

Distance covered running was 2.77 miles! Well chuffed with that!

Can't do another run now until Thursday ๐Ÿ˜ข Not too bothered, Just means more time to recover and I'll be more determined to start WEEK 9 ๐Ÿ˜œ

HOPE YOU'RE ALL ENJOYING THIS BEAUTIFUL BANK HOLIDAY โ˜€๏ธ

I usually walk round Dale Dyke Reservoir and find that challenging. Today I walked round Ladybower Reservoir and I'm exhausted. I did feel tempted to run a bit but my footwear wasn't that supportive.

Well done on your run ๐Ÿ˜Š

Ah! Ladybower is beautiful! Hope you enjoyed it! I've just come back from taking my 81 year old mum out for birthday lunch at Wentworth. Going to walk Dam Flask with husband and son in a bit ๐Ÿ˜ xxx

I did enjoy it. I even managed to get my son to come along and that's difficult to do these days. I saw a very odd mushroom on my walk, I wish I'd taken a photo but I was too exhausted to do anything but walk by that stage ๐Ÿ˜ƒ. xxx

That mushroom looks magic! That sounds like a gorgeous run to finish week 8. Very impressive distance too. You must be on course to get to 5km. Brilliant. Enjoy your rest days. I know youโ€™ll enjoy your next run. ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜˜
