5.6 . My mojo is having a break too, but DH wants to go on a diet and exercise kick after he's taken DD back to her uni town next week, and has plans for us to do longer walks.

Hadn’t update for a few days, been busy on off road run, and a few sea swims and swim lesson which pushed me a lot further out to sea than I’ve ever gone.

6k this morning. I am going to a very remote seaside house at the weekend. I hope I can find somewhere safe to run.

6k today.

I bought some Brooks Ghosts yesterday in a whim because they were pretty and one of my kids was trying some on. Ran in them today, I think I prefer my sauconys

Was lovely to have a 10k run in the foggy drizzle this morning. I’m not a fan of summer running so hadn’t done more than 5k for weeks but the Hitt & swimming have been keeping my fitness up. Swam 1.2km twice this week it’s been lovely in a lane by myself.

5k run on the stunning Wild Atlantic Way this morning. The scenery is breathtaking but the roads are terrible. I was standing in the bushes to let cars pass me.
I am going to investigate some of the walking trails today. I checked one last night but it had a long stretch over wet rocks on the shore so was too sloppy to run.

Another lovely walk though a bit warm towards the end 16.8 km

22.02 miles of walking done this week. It's been way to hot to do anything more. I'm hoping I can do more this week.

Lovely 5k with part of it along the sand on a beach.
Totally bizarre though, I often meet one of the Mums in DSs class at home when I am out running. She walks one of the loops I run but in the opposite direction.
Today on my run in a remote place in the west of Ireland a 4 hour drive from home I met her. She was walking my run in the opposite direction.

That’s slight freaky inniu hope you said hi Grin

Not a huge amount of miles this last few days mostly walking as we were camping and I hate running in the heat. Tried a 5k yesterday at 7am it was still 22c misty sauna feeling so didn’t run further than 5km and went for a long swim at lunchtime as well. Another long swim planned today but have woken up with migraine so hope it lifts as I’ve got a lane booked at my club pool. Must get out on the bike this weekend as missing my cycle time but the roads have been SO busy with tourists it just doesn’t feel safe.

First post reopening Pilates class this morning, followed by 4Km walk starting from the Leisure Centre.
Had a bit of hiatus during August walking wise, due to weather, painful ITB going into hip, and couple of trips North to assist DS2 with a house move- don't ask - the gory details were something else.
