Hello not posted for a little while as I seemed to have a few problems loading the post so hoping now the App is defunct and I’ve got my head around posting on the website things will be better for me.

I have been running 3 times a week consistently and running 18k in the main on Fridays to help with strength and stamina as I embark on a HM distance again in a couple of weeks- non organised ones !

Today was a good run and the weather was perfect for me and I achieved my best time on this route despite all the puddles and mud on the tow path!

I also passed the 400 mile mark on the Welsh Coastal Path route!

My photo is taken by the side of the local petrol station this morning amazingly no queue and they still have petrol! Fortunately for me no petrol required for these 400 local miles- just trying to fit in a mini break to Aberystwyth for a run along the coast to achieve a virtual and reality world clash! Loved doing this on the LEJOG04 close to home.

I have sent a message to my daughter expecting her 1st baby, my first Grandchild! To hang on to baby as it could be the same week🤣🤣🤣
