🏃‍♂️This Was Supposed to Be Easy... 8KM Run with Runna at Northumberlandia

This Was Supposed to Be Easy... 8KM Run with Runna at Northumberlandia Trail Running UK

Join me for an 8KM easy run around the stunning trails of Northumberlandia in Cramlington, guided by the Runna app. This session was all about keeping it conversational pace — no faster than 5:55/km — and tuning into what felt truly easy. Spoiler: the hills had other ideas 😅
