Which way to the beach?

After a Christmas day and Boxing day of being a complete fat pig, it was time to get back on the training bandwagon - so why not combine a trip to Devon to do the usual visiting familly routine with an hours yomp along the coast near Torquay, South Devon? Great shout.

Not sure how far I covered as the GPS signal was too weak for my run keeper, so I did a 30 mins out, 30 mins back run at as high an intensity as I could maintain. Serious DOMS today - mainly due to attacking hard the couple of hundred stairs up and over the headland. My legs were saying no but the new leggings and trainers santa had bought me were screaming for more!!

Doing a coastal run, albeit a short one was awesome and a pretty inspiring place to train - I can sense a few ironman training camps away by the sea over the spring and summer may be on the agenda!!

  1. Mate, I'm all about the training camps. Running around under the street-lights of High Wycombe just doesn't inspire me I'm afraid! Very jealous. It looks great down there.
