A Goldilocks run 😉

[Nymahchai]

What a wet start to the day and I felt more restless as the day wore on, so by the time midday came, I decided to just get out there as the wind got wilder and wilder!

Went inland to get some shelter and was going to do some dynamic exercises after warm up so looped round via the park but it was so muddy, huge puddles, tufty grass, and everything not right just like Goldilocks so abandoned that and just ran and ran and ran.

Onlookers must have thought I was a nutter, zigzagging around the park and as I emerged up a bank to the prom ran into friends battling into wind, and peering at this demented mud spattered apparition. No attempt could be made at coolness or composure.

I so enjoyed myself and ran all the way home 🏡. Trainers are looking trashed however. Oh I love 💓 this running lark 👏

You have painted such a great story of your run. Glad the Three Bears didn't come and spoil it! 🤗🌬🤸‍♀️

[Nymahchai Graduate in reply to apatsyf]

That would really have spooked me!! Bad enough the loose dogs looking for a bit of sport. 🤣

[Wenderwoo Graduate]

Sounds fab! Well done 😁

[Nymahchai Graduate in reply to Wenderwoo]

Thank you 😊. It was a reluctant start but once I pulled on the kit, it felt good to launch out into the gale. I am still in disbelief that I am so hooked!

[Wenderwoo Graduate in reply to Nymahchai]

Me too! I waver sometimes, and then the guilt kicks in, so I go out and do it, and then super chuffed. What has happened to us?

[Nymahchai Graduate in reply to Wenderwoo]

🤣It must be down to the feel good endorphins! I read an interesting article yesterday about exercise and the brain 🧠 but will need to dig out the link . Super chuffed- I like that!

[Lovetocycle]

Sounds brilliant! And look lovely 😊😊😊well done

[Nymahchai Graduate in reply to Lovetocycle]

Great fun and the view looked better than me by the time I took the pic! The wind is still howling as I write. Accuweather says gusting to 84kms 💨🌊!

[SueAppleRun Graduate]

TrIners will dry and mud will bash off but you will never lose the pride of being able to run and that’s very cool

[Nymahchai Graduate in reply to SueAppleRun]

Trainers are drying and being able to run is cool! I like that thought!

[SueAppleRun Graduate in reply to Nymahchai]

Every time you see someone running along it’s a great feeling that you can too

And i didn’t even mention the 3 inches that disappeared from my waist over a couple of months that is still gone

[Nymahchai Graduate in reply to SueAppleRun]

Me too! I love the slimmer me!

[RunningMigster Graduate]

What a stunning photo.

Sounds like you had a really enjoyable run.

There really is nothing better than this running lark is there? 😎😁🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️

Mig

[Nymahchai Graduate in reply to RunningMigster]

Thanks Mig. I love the view especially the big waves 🌊 and it lifts the spirit- I don’t ever forget to be grateful. That’s a bit zen sounding but coupled with running 🏃‍♀️ there is nothing better yaaaay 😎

[RunningMigster Graduate in reply to Nymahchai]

Nothing wrong with a bit of zen

[Nymahchai Graduate in reply to RunningMigster]

Maybe Adrienne’s yoga 🧘‍♀️ is rubbing off on me! Another addictive pastime 🤣

We postponed a trip to Bristol that was due today for next Saturday as it wasn't very nice today and at first I was disappointed but now I am ok about it.

I went out for my walk at 4pm today where it was windy and a couple of showers but I was fine.

[Nymahchai Graduate in reply to Hidden]

That’s a great attitude to accept the day as it unfolds. Another day dawns tomorrow with new possibilities 😊

[Hidden in reply to Nymahchai]

My ex boyfriend says that I am a champ!

[Nymahchai Graduate in reply to Hidden]

👏👏👏

[Roxdog Graduate]

Haha 😂 such a great story! It is quite mad this running malarkey isn't it!

[Nymahchai Graduate in reply to Roxdog]

We are all mad really 🤣

[Joanney69 Graduate]

Sounds great, Nymahchai, amazing what a run 🏃 can do 😊

[Nymahchai Graduate in reply to Joanney69]

Better than pills eh? 😊

[Joanney69 Graduate in reply to Nymahchai]

Definitely 👌 ☺

[Buddy34 Graduate]

People might think you're a nutter but at least you're a fit and healthy one🤣🤣

Great running Nymachai

[Nymahchai Graduate in reply to Buddy34]

Thank you 😊. Was coughing a lot yesterday but today fine. Must have shrugged it off. Yes I feel fit and healthy and better than a year ago!

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate]

Fabulous...go you!

[Nymahchai Graduate in reply to Oldfloss]

Thank you but not in your league for lyrical writing ✍️. Respect ✊

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate in reply to Nymahchai]

[Allbarron Graduate]

Well done in taking on the weather. Just about to set out on my run this morning and it's wild out there. Hope I enjoy it as much as you did! If there's porridge when I get back that would be lovely 😂😂

[Nymahchai Graduate in reply to Allbarron]

Good luck on your run 🏃‍♀️ and it’s certainly sunnier where I am- hope it’s the same for you. Go enjoy it and you’ll be ready for that porridge! I love porridge too especially with extra bits 😋

[Moosey60]

Nothing like a good blowy blustery run to get rid of the cobwebs 😄. Love the photo

[Nymahchai Graduate in reply to Moosey60]

Certainly clears the head!! I couldn’t resist taking some photos when I finished running 🏃‍♀️. I love the seaside 😊

[Shamar]

Love it! I had a similar run yesterday trying to dodge puddles and navigate through the mud!! I was determined not to stop! Love this running lark too! 🏃‍♀️😊

[Nymahchai Graduate in reply to Shamar]

The path on edge of the park had huge puddles that I couldn’t avoid unless I leapt into the brambles! The grass was a quagmire. I love your determination too! Go girl 🏃‍♀️👏
