Today was my first trail run {which kind of feels weird to say that considering where I live}…but not my last.
A 10k trail run at Llandegla with runstrong.
You should definitely look them up if you are thinking of taking up trail running.
Great friends, blue sky, a few moments of “she’s gonna go” as my sister tripped/slipped 3 times in the first mile and then the biggest tea cake in the one planet adventure cafe afterwards…not a bad way to spend a Saturday.

we have loads of trails around Waiheke Island too. I never would have taken up running if it wasnt for the trails. So glad to read that you are doing it too :)
