Good run for you today W&S, you set out to run 3K and almost ran 4K, at least it was nice and sunny and no rain, another lovely photo

Tomorrow I will set out to run a 12K, the longest run I will have ever ran ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿพ, part of getting to just over 16K/10 miles by the end of the month, well, I'll see how it goes. ๐Ÿ˜Š ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿพ

Thanks Al, I hope your run goes smoothly and you enjoy yourself, that sounds like a long way to me but then 5k sounded like a long way this time last year and itโ€™s my comfortable distance

Wasnโ€™t it lovely without the wind today? But I did get a bit warm.

It was perfect, I donโ€™t think we ran long enough to get too warm. Now itโ€™s raining here but that gives an excuse for a lazy day before returning to work tomorrow, all iโ€™ve got to do is iron all my smart clothes and iโ€™m ready

Have a lively day Dexy

Not easy at all but I seem to get a kick out of pushing myself to the limit

It could have been disappointing because it was slower but they canโ€™t all be fast and we never really worried about speed

No absolutely right. Just enjoying the run is equally important. Take care.

Looks beautiful ๐Ÿ˜

I have a Beach to run along too and whilst I feel lucky Iโ€™m not sure itโ€™s quite as lovely as yours!

Well done on the running ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ

Oh and love the shoe porn ๐Ÿ‘Ÿ ๐Ÿ‘

I did the same to protect my knees and ankles

Happy running

New shoes are amazing arenโ€™t they? i think any beach is great to run along we are near a stony beach with a road alongside but can quickly drive to more picturesque places and often do
