A cool, sunny 10 miles..❄️☀️🙂

[Sandraj39]

I have a 10 mile trail trail event in three weeks and have been building up my distance again for this.

My plan had been to run 14k but once I was out there on the beautiful trails - and taking things steady - I decided to plod on to 16.2k(10 miles).🙂

This was not an easy route today - lots of mud and puddles and a hill that was so slippy I literally couldn’t run up it (I tried and failed!🤣). I know for sure that my event will be much flatter, although it is by the coast so it COULD be windy!😱

Anyway, miles in the bag and happily home!

Have a good week of running everyone.🙂

a lovely day to be doing a long run Sandra. We went for a walk and lots of runners were doing marathon training I think.

Are you doing the South Downs run?

[Beachcomber66 Administrator Half Marathon in reply to Dexy5]

Is that a typo or was there an excess hydration issue ? 🙂

[Dexy5 10 Miles in reply to Beachcomber66]

TY. A typo it was. I will amend BC. 😂

[Beachcomber66 Administrator Half Marathon in reply to Dexy5]

Probably an accurate statement though 🙂

It was a beautiful morning to be out running Dexy5 . I’m doing the Run Rebel Chichester Harbour 10 mile trail run on March 22nd. Two work colleagues are also running it, along with hubby and me, so should be fun! Here’s hoping it’s not too windy!🤞🙂

I will keep my fingers crossed for you Sandra. It would be nice to have it like today. It was glorious at Hayling Island today with just a gentle breeze.

Now there's a confidence boost right there! Well done 😊

[Sandraj39 Half Marathon in reply to linda9389]

Yep, feeling okay after it too!🙂

[Beachcomber66 Administrator Half Marathon]

That is a good run to get into your legs Sandraj. I am planning a 12/13k tomorrow but, assuming I make it, I will not push on further. Too early in the season for taking liberties! Anyway, Coach Bennett will close my run down at 8 miles.

Your next 10 miles will definitely feel the benefit, but you know that 👍🙂

[Sandraj39 Half Marathon in reply to Beachcomber66]

That’s what I’m hoping Beachcomber66 ! Good luck with your run tomorrow!🤞🙂

Miles in the bag.... Wonderful despite slippy hill

[skysue16 Half Marathon]

Fantastic run, well done. Yes, wonderful weather this weekend ☀️😀👍

[aliboo70 Half Marathon]

Great running Sandraj39 ,looks like you're right on track for your race! 💪🏃‍♀️👌xxx

[RiceAndPeas Marathon]

Fantastic achievement, running on muddy trails sounds like hard work but a lot of fun too. Your much flatter will be a doddle in comparison.
