So today we went back to the beach. 30 minutes walking through the dunes, and another 30 along the seafront to get back.

I’d assumed that walking along the flat beach would be easier than the winding and hilly dunes. I was wrong! It took more time to get back along the sand! And I still have sand between my toes! 😂

Not the album from Chris Rhea, but the half way point of my trail run this morning.

It’s the first time I’ve done one, and I hope that it won’t be the last! Whilst it’s a lot harder than running on the road (102 minutes last week for 15.5km and 128 this week for 14.4km, but using 10% more calories nto do it!), the scenery more than makes up for it! So much so that when running you stop looking at the distance and just concentrate on the scenery. Geweldig!

And seeing as my neice stayed with us last night I came back, ate lunch and then went skating (just a short 4km skate) with her around our local ‘lake’.

Seeing as it’s also my wedding anniversary today we’re going to a nice restaurant this evening to put an amount of those calories back 😀
