Morning Run: Welsh wander

avatar

steevc just finished a 10.66km run, that lasted for 70 minutes.
This run helped steevc burn 855.0 calories.


Description from Strava:
We are in Wales with a load of family for a long weekend staying on a farm. It is very quiet here, but it's good to get away. Yesterday rained a lot, but we still went to the beach. I paddled and a few people swam.

Yesterday evening it brightened up and a rainbow appeared as we went for a walk. On the farm is a prehistoric burial structure. There is also the remains of a village from Roman times.

I wanted to get a run in, so headed out before breakfast. Strava had some possible routes that started from the farm. The first part was along a narrow lane, but there is not much traffic. I was by a bigger road for a while then turned onto a lane that took me to a little bay. It looked like a dead end, bit a found a sign for the Welsh coast path. I was trying to follow that, but lost it a few times.

There was a real mix of surfaces with grass, sand, gravel sand tarmac. There were steep parts with stone steps. I took it carefully as it would be easy to trip.

I passed a few people who were out walking and a couple of ladies who were running. It ended up a bit further than I had planned. The climb at the end was tough and I walked a bit, but ran the last part.

It was a nice outing and I like to explore new places. It makes a change to be by the sea.

Run free.

The funny thing is that we went for a walk later that covered a lot of the same ground.

Funny we were eyeing up Anglesea before opting for Snowdon in Feb as there was better cheap accommodation on the mainland. 10K is a good effort on unfamiliar terrain as you have to remember the way back! How's the farm..?

It's lovely here. The good thing about running by the sea is that you know where you are. I just had to get to a beach we'd already visited. The farm is nice. They have a few cottages plus some camping. The kids are camping, but I like a proper bed.

I like to explore. It's very different to home. More hills for one thing.

The start and end elevation change must have made your adventure run even more challenging.

I like to explore new places.

Yes, it's a bit like being an explorer. It sounds like the trip overall has been a good one. Enjoy!

I started up the hill, so it was hard at the end. I enjoyed it anyway.

That's an awesome pic of the rainbow. I have been doing a bit of walking myself lately. Mostly outdoors which is a nice change.

The rainbow made it look like there's treasure buried under that rock haha. I haven't been to Wales in a long time - over a decade now. I used to go at least once a year.

I did compose that shot for magical effect. It's amazing to think how long it's been there. We have family over this way, so we come anyway.
