I really wanted this to be a 14+ miles today but the route was really tough so all in I'm pleased with the 14.

I'm tempted to do a flat run next time just to be lazy 🀣 but I know I won't get the views...

Great run for you today GoGo_JoJo, nice graphics of your route, 14 miles, that is excellent, a little more than a half marathon. 😊 πŸƒ

Yes, the plan is to build on HM distance with a view to 20 mile runs. I was hoping for 14.5ish today but I forgot to plan in a short warm up walk so lost .5 at the start before I started running. Hey ho. No rush. πŸ’ͺπŸ˜‰

Love the view logic πŸ˜€. 14 miles sounds a long way to me with hills! Well done

It really helps getting round when there's lots to see. πŸ‘πŸ˜

I was posting yesterday about a Kilomarathon, which is 26.2 Kilometres, got a few comments about that including one from Oldfloss.

26.2 Kilometres is just over 16 miles so it would be a stepping stone for you for your 20 mile runs, there are not many Kilomarathons, the only one I know of was Edinburgh, yes was, its past, not sure if there are any more..

Thanks, might aim for that distance next then. I don't go in for organised events but its a good goal to aim for πŸ‘πŸ˜

It makes a fun ending to a good day and a nice way to see where you got to. You can only add 10 on the free version. I took loads today. πŸ‘πŸ˜

I'm very pleased myself. I'm going to dial it back a tad now this month. I'm determined not to overdo it again but want to keep moving forward πŸ‘πŸ˜

Great run JoJo! I only did around 10 miles on my maiden trail run today and that was enough with all the hills :)

I was thinking about you today, wondering how your maiden voyage into trail running went on your orientation run. Hope you had fun!

It was a beautiful day. The trails were very hilly but the scenery more than made up for it :)

That’s the ticket! That elevation change in a concrete jungle just wouldn’t cut it, but get you out in nature and it is AWESOME 😍. Glad you enjoyed it.

Thank you. Yes, it's a whole new world but the views are a great trade off πŸ‘πŸ˜

Well done on your maiden trail run, you'll be hooked before you know it! 🀣

I have much respect for people like yourself doing these kind of hills all the time. But being in nature and the beautiful views is getting me hooked too 😊.
