Seashore run!

Hi running friends, I ran 6km along the seashore at Bognor Regis this morning, just as the tide was coming in. Running on sand and shingle is hard work and it was far outside my comfort zone. I didn’t worry about pace or time, just enjoying the experience!

Woah, that is tough David. I've done a Pwllheli parkrun on sand so I definitely know it's not easy. Well done you on braving it 💪👏👏

I’ve never been tempted to run on the beach here even though it’s practically on my doorstep. Too much like hard work but now you’ve got me thinking 🤔 Maybe I should try it. I wonder if my ankle might complain though. 🤔 Kudos to you David for toughing that one out 💪
