Ran a very enjoyable 30mins this afternoon. For the first time I ran a different route, in the grounds of a former stately home which includes several water features. Last 5 mins was tough but I felt good afterwards.

Hope you're all well. Keep runningπŸ€πŸ‘πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒ

Good to hear from you that you enjoyed your run today through the grounds of a former stately home, if possible for your next 30 minute run on Tuesday try running it as early as possible to avoid the the 30C temperatures that are forecast for the London area and most of the rest of England except the far north west.

Thanks. I walked the route today so know where to go 😁

Your plan sounds good. I did the same route all throughout and think it will be good to mix it up a bit. I'm intrigued as to where the ex stately home is....

I did the same, I walked the route first. Wanstead Park in East London, the grounds were built as a pleasure garden in the 1800s. Its really nice, if you are ever in the vicinity I strongly recommend a visit πŸ‘
