High Waves

[AlMorr]

This is a photo of the exact place I ran my graduation run last year, the weather that day was not as bad as today.

The photo is of the promenade at Helensburgh on the Firth of Clyde

[Grannyhugs Graduate]

Wow it’s certainly some storm today. Are you running anywhere or is this a rest day

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to Grannyhugs]

This is a screen shot photo, I did not take it.

Today I had Christmas Dinner at a golf club, there were 24 people at it, all of them are members of the Thursday walking club that I do every week, so no running for me today.

[Grannyhugs Graduate in reply to AlMorr]

Christmas dinner with friends sounds like a far better call than running today.

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to Grannyhugs]

I enjoyed my Christmas🤶 lunch today thank you. 😊 🏃🏾 🎄

[SueAppleRun Graduate]

That’s rough it looks stunning though

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to SueAppleRun]

The photo was taken today, not by me, if you look closely, there are two brave people who are walking along the prom.

[SueAppleRun Graduate in reply to AlMorr]

Lucky they don’t get washed away

[Buddy34 Graduate in reply to AlMorr]

Or really stupid people

Wowsers Al, that looks wild! 🌊 💨

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to cheekychipmunks]

Very wild, I just noticed where it was because I ran, run 3 of week 9 at the same place when there was only a light breeze and the sea was very calm.

[cheekychipmunks Graduate in reply to AlMorr]

You’d have had a tough time doing that run today. 🏃‍♂️🌊🏃‍♂️💨🏃‍♂️🌊🏃‍♂️💨

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to cheekychipmunks]

I could not have got to Helensburgh anyway, all the trains and buses are off because of flooding and high winds, I would have cancelled my graduation run until tomorrow.

[cheekychipmunks Graduate in reply to AlMorr]

You were lucky last year! Gosh it sounds awful Al.

[Buddy34 Graduate]

It's wild today AlMorr . Hope you enjoyed your lunch 😊😊

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to Buddy34]

It was very good, I was at the Lochview Family Golf Centre Clubhouse at Drumpelliier, one of the people at the lunch asked me "if I wanted to run a 5K before the Xmas lunch"? I replied NO WAY 😂

[Oldgirlruns Graduate]

Crikey AM - if you were running in that it must have been hard work! But running along the seafront anywhere is always a joy isn’t it!

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to Oldgirlruns]

No I wasn't running today, I would never run in those conditions, I just showed you all that photograph from today because it was the exact place that I ran my graduation run last year on 18th June in much calmer conditions.

[Oldgirlruns Graduate in reply to AlMorr]

Ah, I see - but it looks a lovely place if the sun is out so I can see why you chose it for your graduation run!

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to Oldgirlruns]

It is a lovely place to run when the weather is good as it was on my graduation run. 🏃🏾 🎓

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate]

Oooof, Alan, thank goodness you’re not there now!!! That is wild but a great picture...I love a windy sea!!

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to Mummycav]

👍

[Elfe5 Graduate]

Oh goodness, I’ve never seen Helensburgh looking like that! - But that would be because the ferries were cancelled by the gales & I would have been looking at the Cumbrae like that!! 😂

[Franglaise Graduate]

Wow! Happy runiversary Al

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to Franglaise]

My runiversary is in June, that is the same place that I ran, run 3 of week 9, I hope you are still running in France Franglaise, let me be the first to wish you Bon Noel.

[Franglaise Graduate in reply to AlMorr]

Thank you Al...still running....totally addicted. It was all going so well, almost up to hm distance when injury struck...both knees. So I had 2 weeks forced rest. Tried a short slow run Monday and knees were fine.....until later and one knee started hurting!

Just got up now and knees feel fine but making myself not run!

Im not a physio (wish I was!) but think I just overdid it......

Hope everything is well with you and your world.

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to Franglaise]

Sorry about the knee Franglasise, I am feeling very well indeed, thank you, I have ran 12/ 5K parkruns so far, number 13 this Saturday, 4/10K's and many more shorter runs since graduating last year. I just hope your knee heals soon and you can get back to running injury free.

[Franglaise Graduate in reply to AlMorr]

You are a star

Thank you for the good wishes.....me too....want so much to get out again.
