Ah weekend off from work and a nice run yesterday

We decided to walk up the hill by the poppy field, the circuit i did the other evening with daughter and dog it the other way round, my garmin gps didn’t pick up until we were at the top of the hill which annoyed me a bit because i wanted to know how far it is, so when we got back to the car I did it again tracking it at just under 2 k with the equivalent to 30 flights of stairs so quite steep

Arrived home feet up cup of tea and message from daughter to say did i fancy a dog walk, i didn’t fancy the hill again so beach instead. it’s a dull day but i’ve nice covered 9k

Not sure how far these legs will be able to run tomorrow

Happy running all

Looks so good to be near the sea. Hope you enjoyed it and the time with your daughter and the dog.

Look at those mad kite surfers out there. Brrrr. Makes me shiver just looking 🥶

It was cold on the beach but the treat for the dog walking really nicely along the busy road and not reacting to cars and bikes we couldn’t do that a year ago

What choices you have - hills, poppy fields or beach - lucky, lucky, lucky 😉

We are lucky in this area, of course the poppies aren’t up let alone out at this time of year but will be stunning later in

Hi WillowandSola, it sounds like you had a great day out yesterday. Where are the poppy fields, I’m running in Henfield so not so far away. Just started W4R1 so not ready yet for a 2k hill climb, but come W9 the poppies will be in bloom. Enjoy your run today, the sun is shining. 😊

Sounds and looks like a perfect day off, that sea looks a bit nippy though! Nice day for a run today though ☺️
