    I’ve lived in both halves along the bottom and it’s quite accurate. That said, a lot of people in Camarthenshire & Pembrokeshire seem to have quite southernly English accents but are Welsh, a lot are native Welsh speakers so that might give the impression that there’s a lot of English people there.

    Driving through FUCKING NOTHING is amazing though, stunning views and countryside. I’ve no idea how the random pockets of people can live there though and not go insane.






  • I’ve decided to start getting up early on Sunday’s so I can get an early morning run in, and finding the runs a struggle. I’m doing 10k (my longest ever run is only 11km) but they feel a lot more difficult than they do when I run at mid-day or the afternoon.

    This Sunday I was up at 5:30, had an overnight oats breakfast, waited about 45 to 50 minutes and headded out for 7am. My legs felt stiff and my upper thighs a bit sore - maybe I need to do more on my warm up than I normally would do?

    I’ve been wanting to start pushing past the 10km barrier and work for more but I really struggled, nearly gave up after 7km but just kept going. I’m glad I did but disappointed that I couldn’t go further. Looking at Strava I’ve only done 9 runs that are 10km+ so maybe I’m being a bit hard on myself.
