Morning all.
I was out the door at 6 am this morning. Seven & a half miles in total. I ran over to the Kingston greensward & the village of East Preston & back home again.
I'm just going to throw another cup of tea down my throat, then Mrs12bar & I are strolling down to the beach for a swim. It's hot out there already.

Well done 12bar. I could barely drag myself a mile this morning. Enjoy the beach and swim.

Thanks Garfield. We had a lovely swim, the sea was like the proverbial mill pond. To cap it all off, there was hardly anyone on the beach.
I feel an “old man’s half hour” coming on in the armchair soon.

15 miles this morning, another beach run Clymping to Middleton, boy was it hot and hard going. I wish I had taken my hydration vest with me today, felt seriously dehydrated at the end.

Well done in this heat Minimag. 👍
Although being selfish, I hope that slows you down for our meet up at parkrun on Saturday. 😎

Good running everyone. I am *not* a morning person, so having to get up early to avoid the heat is not my idea of fun.

I am a morning person but I find it hard to get up early in the winter when it's dark. This time of year it's worth it as it's bright at 5am!

6miles this morning before breakfast. The 1.5mile track across the fields has deteriorated (heavy rain washing away soil leaving jagged stones and not much use) making it really tricky to run - the idea of falling on such an isolated spot did not appeal!

Morning all.
I was out the door at 6 am this morning & went for a run up to Durrington Hill. Crikey, there wasn't much air to breath, it's still hot & muggy. I ran home via the beach. Just over 8 miles in total.
Talking of the beach, that is where my wife & I will be going in a couple of hours time for a swim.
