W5R2 a few pics and a feedback

Covered 3.92K today of various terrain: down the field, up the field, public path crossings, river crossings... it was beautiful... however

I found the second part of the run challenging. Ok, it was up the hill, but it is the first time that my eyes started watering!!! Not to mention my nose...

I managed to complete it but was surprised by my body reaction...

Thanks to Curnie1 for keeping in touch and helping me to get through it! 🙏

Will take this same route for W5R3, but try to tackle it much slower...

Thank you, Imc50, but in all honesty, I was surprised I didn’t know the nearby terrains before... it is only since I started C25K that I started venturing a bit further into the fields... now I love visiting there... 😍 Actually, I started suspecting that my runs are just excuses to go there over and over again 😁.

Shsssssss keep it a secret, let them think you're actually running then 😝
