When your Wednesday walk turns in to a Wednesday run.

A #wednesdaywalk, what better excuse does anyone need than those simple two words to get out and about and enjoy the stunning scenery that surrounds us all??

Im very fortunate to work for the National Health Service(NHS), not only because my job is incredibly rewarding, but because my employer does genuinely care for its employees. The trust i work for takes wellness and well-being incredibly seriously, and offers staff a small weekly "time allocation" that you can use for exercise and fitness. So, as always, i used my lunch break and tagged on our organisations "time to move" protocol to get out and enjoy the beautiful surroundings once again this week.

We'd had a little bit of a wet start to the week, so when the sun decided to show its face today, i made rge most of it and utilised every last second i had available.

Its only a short 10minute walk until youre lost in the wilderness..... ok, ok, not wilderness, Wales is far too small for all that!! But you get the jist of it?? If ive said it once, ill say it a thousand times: "Im very lucky, and blessed to have all this on my doorstep."

Whilst i dont have any "class VI" rapids in my area, its supposing what a little bit of rain can do to a small stream. Normally this is a slow flowing, shallow pool, but once the water from the mountains starts to run, it soon picks up amd fills up

Since I had the extra time, i thought it best to get a few extra miles under my ever increasing belt. Ive really been making an efforst lately, so today my body felt every painstaking stride and every long mile!!

Id planned to run 5miles and a very gentle pace, and funny enough, thats exactly all my body would allow me to do!! 🤣🤣

So it was out and back in under an hour, getting some.much needed fresh air in my lungs before heading backnto my desk and microscope to finish of my working day.

Its getting late in to the evening here, so i cant see me racking up any more major steps. Ill probably get a few hundred morenin going back and forth the toilet througg the night..... ohh the joys of getting old!!

Ive been aiming for 10 - 12k steps per day, and today i smashed that by passing 15,000. Im hoping to get some #photographs of all the old #architecture left behind from the industrial past, wales has plenty of, next time.But its definitely a boots and/or Wellies job to reach those places. If anyone is interested in those typesnof things, leave a comment below and ill very much try my best to accommodate you next week.

Till then stay classy
