Beaches run.
15km | LSD | about 90 mins
Week 9 of 13
It was such a beautiful autumn day in Sydney that I just had to get out there. So after a hectic day doing stuff with the kids, I headed out at 3.30pm for a run. It was only when I was lacing up my shoes that I remembered that my ITB/glute thing hadn't complained all day so I decided to make the most of it and give it a bit of a test.
This is why I run. Forget PB's and goals yadda yadda. Running on a georgous day in beautiful surroundings at a comfortable pace like today just makes me smile. I ran (smiling) up through Randwick and then down to to South Coogee, chucked a left and followed the coastal walk north through Coogee, Clovelly, Glamarama (took the pic facing south) and then to Bondi. Ran a lap of Bondi and then headed up Bondi Road to home.
The ITB thing was happening but not enough to winge about. I was able to tackle all the stairs and hills of the run easy and only found going down the occasional dip a little bit niggly.
Happy days !

Gotta be happy with that Gronk! Well done on slipping it in late in the day.
Good to hear Gronk! I agree that runs that like remind you of why you do it. We're lucky to live in such a great place.
Hope the itb is in retreat.
Happy days it is mate. I love running along the coast at any time. It looked very nice. Glad ITB man has settled so you can do Nail Can Hill.
It's a good run from coogee to bondi.
Didn't realise you are just a kid at 42 y.o. Still years away from joining us in the Veterans.
Had one just like it today Gronk - sure is great weather for running ;-)
Tame that ITB too!
Ya gotta love those days when running just feels so natural and gives you a real high.
There aren't too many better places to run Gronk. Glad the ITB is behaving itself.
You can stop posting photos like that now. Makes me jealous... :-)

Gronk - wow! What a great place to run, such wonderful motivation to get out there.
That's a beautiful run Gronk.
I hope all goes well over the next two weeks!
