Pump up the (natural) volume

Last year when I was doing my first C25K my playlist was an absolute priority but today I decided to take out one of my ear phones (sorry Michael) and just listen to the waves, and on the way back......the wind which I was running into. The playlist had become secondary.

A bit of a blip too on the way back. Decided to pause to take this snap - unfortunately Michael disappeared and I had to fast forward to try and find out where I was. I think I did a bit more than I should’ve. Lessons to be learnt every day - don’t put Michael on pause being today’s.

If I could run along side the beach and the waves I would have taken my earphones out as well. Great you stopped to take the photo it's great. Just keep it up😊😊

Lovely. Desperate to run by the sea like Mr Parky does... currently I'm setting off from my house towards the beach- one day I will get there! For now just not quite covering enough distance

Well at least you have that to look forward to! I was on holiday and now I’m back at home - no more ‘by the sea side’ runs for me - at least not for a while 😳
