Where I run (sometimes)

I ran the other day, honest.  I didn’t want to because I find it really boring running round here and miss the diversity of the marshes and so I thought to myself, how can I make it more interesting? and I thought I know, I’ll take my camera out with me, I used to like taking photos when I ran and so I decided to take my phone and use the camera on that and so here are the photos of where I run (sometimes).

I decided to run round the field and I thought I’d taken the first photo at the edge of the field but obviously not, as the first photo on my phone was of the not-dead-yet-sheep.

And I had originally thought I’d run up the steep bit

and then I went through the trees

to get to the next field

and then I was back out on the road

and I wondered if it had been re-tarmaced as it looked dark and smooth and I wondered maybe it just looked different to how I remembered as I hadn’t been there for a while and then I got to The Tree

and then the road looked like it usually does and not smooth and dark but with big holes in like this

and so then I risked my life dodging the big holes and went home and it was more enjoyable taking my camera so I think I’ll do it again next time.

  • Agreed. taking your camera forces you to look more closely at your surroundings and find things to enjoy

  • And seconded. I’ve just come back from a weekend running in Whitby and have taken lots of photos. I’d just said to husband that I’m definitely taking my camera out with me again – I just wish I’d been braver and stopped to take pictures of interesting things as well as when we stopped as a group. Damn peer pressure!

  • hey – that was kinda fun, going along with you on your run, sort of! nicely done.

  • It all looks rather lovely, thanks for sharing it!

    Also looks like you might have some diggers/rollers/dumpers sorting out those holes soon. Bit too far for us to come over with the running buggy though.

Please leave me a comment - I love comments!
