14K is a good walk and 2 cute friends 😁
Believe it or not, that part of my walk this morning is part of an annual 21K trail run, I had walking boots this morning, if I ran on that part I would have my trail shoes on.
That would be a good trail !I just did a short 3.5k run this morning 😁
Good for you Instructor57 👍🏃🏾
Haha, easier to call me Ian 😂
Thanks Ian

I saw something rather similar when I looked in the mirror at 530 this morning before heading off to work! Only I looked slightly grumpier.
Surely not🤣😀
😂
Some people are saying that's what they look like first thing in the morning, I am sure that doesn't apply to you.
Nice hairstyle though!

That’s a good walk love your picture. Your sciatica must be better? Only did a slow 5km 😀
I enjoyed my walk this morning, glad you like my photo, my sciatica is almost gone, it would be back if I had ran that distance today, I ran two kilometers more than that last year when I ran 16K/10 miles but not on that route, well done on your 5K today. 😊

Awww I love seeing all the animals and wildlife on my walks and runs 👏👏👏
Glad you like the photo TT60, I am fortunate to live very near the countryside so it doesn't take long, even walking to get there, although I live "miles" from the seaside.
They are gorgeous!!
what a lovely sight to see on your walk. the ones I meet are a lot tamer than those two look!! Bo run or walk for me today, weeding instead phew!!!
There were about another 8 cows that I passed this morning, we in Scotland call those type of cattle "heeland coos" Highland Cows, they were put there from the Scottish Highlands probably to avoid the severe winter weather in the Highlands, there was a notice saying the cows are only there for the winter months and will go back to the Highlands in the Spring.

That’s a good distance for a walk, Al! Not so sure I could manage that - I find slow jogging much easier than walking. Lovely pic!
I am not sure what I would feel like if I had ran that route I walked this morning, putting aside my recent sore leg, last Sunday after a slower 8K walk my right leg was much sorer than the longer quicker 14K walk of today, so it is getting better, I am sure if I had ran that 14K route today the pain and sciatica would be back with a bang.
You’ve done the right thing in taking care. Hopefully it won’t be too long until you are able to run again.

Aren’t they gorgeous, long time I have seen them in real life but sister paints them
cattle
The cows that I saw this morning are young compared to the cows that your sister painted.
Very true
That does look like me! Well my Username photo at least. I only walked 8k today. So many people (and joggers!). You really are on the mend.
BeatlesforeverGraduate
Amazing, that's quite a walk! And an added treat 🐮 How was your not parkrun yesterday?
Thanks Beatlesforever, I ran my 50th virtual parkrun yesterday in a time of 42.19, I ran/walked /jeffing as they call it for the first 4 kilometers, the last kilometer I ran non stop at a pace of 7.51 km, my legs did not feel too sore after the run enabling me to get that 14K walk this morning.
Fantastic news! Very glad to hear your legs weren't sore. Hopefully you're well on the mend now 👏👏👏

Ah how lovely. Especially the calf! 😀

Hi cuties! So lovely. Hope you had an enjoyable walk
I had a enjoyable walk today CP2, I saw 8 cows, 7 🚴 cyclists, 11 runners🏃🏾 and 20 walkers,🚶 so everyone including myself had a good morning out in the fresh air.
sounds like it! yesterday on my run I saw about 20 horses (3 very friendly ones), 1 sheem 1 goat with 2 billy goats, 1 rabbit and 1 ultra runner. I'll try and keep a more precise count next time 
One of the runners I saw this morning was a gazelle, I estimated that he was running at sub 25 minute 5K pace, perhaps around 22 minutes, the other runners were around the 28/36 minute 5K pace.
Impressed with your eye for these things. I came to a lovely pub yesterday and there was another runner there so we had a chat. She said she's trying to do 20 miles each weekend (up hills). I was quite impressed with her!
Strangely enough the only time I have been able to talk to a runner is when I am on my bike cycling the same way as the runner, there was one last year who told me that he was running a half marathon, I wished him luck.

So beautiful, gifts of long walks in beautiful places. 😍
That part where the cows are was the muddiest part of the whole walk, the cows have churned the ground into a sea of mud if you look closely at the photograph.

Brilliant length of walk AlMorr and a beautiful photo 😍🐂

I've been on worse dates tbh
Lol chunky pie, you met a girl who could not see you because her hair covered her eyes, just like that little cow in the photo.
OldflossAdministratorGraduate
Oh WOW!!!!! They are beoootiful!
Glad that you like the photo Oldfloss, that little cow was covered in mud, but I don't think she was bothered about that.
I am doing a painting of a Highland cow...but it is not painted in the most traditional of colours...he will be multi coloured... like some geese I have just finished!Cows, I feel are very well used to mud!
Mud is the least concern to a cow, enjoy your paintings, you can paint as many from my photos as you wish.

Great walk for you Al and wasn't it a beautiful day 😎🌞 glad to hear that your sciatica has passed over 👍 great that you managed to do your 50th not park run and a good time too! I love the picture of the hairy coos 😁👍
A nice day where I live but not as sunny as some other places in the UK, at least the rain stayed off.I think if I had ran 14K today the leg would have got sore by the end, I enjoyed my 50th virtual parkrun yesterday but I did walk a little during the first 4 K's, ran the last kilometer non stop, glad you like the photo of those "hairy Highland cooes" (cows)
I think you were wise to take it steady Al, and you still got to enjoy your walk today while taking care of the sciatica 👍
TippyrunnGraduate
Gorgeous, I love heilan coos. Long time since I’ve seen any. 😃😃

Lovely pic Al, but I think your beard is longer than their hair now.
