    Hello UA-cam, it's been a while! Last weekend I headed out with some friends to explore the gorgeous Chepstow - Tintern Abbey 20km circular route. Yes, it went a little wrong, but much fun was had in the process!

    I grew in Chepstow too. The wye valley walk and the Offas dyke path in the area are the reasons I have stayed in love with hiking and now trail running.

      @@FloraBeverley Indeed. The offa's dyke path runs along the whole length of wales, starting off there near Chepstow and ends in Prestatyn in North Wales. My aim is to walk the dyke in my 50th year. Just not sure whether to start where I grew up or end there!! :)

    That looked like SO MUCH FUN!! The route was gorgeous, even with the oopses, the Abbey was breathtaking, and I'm absolutely all for coffee and cake in the middle of a run, especially with good friends! Loved the pup happily chugging away. This was one of my favorite "go running with me" style vlogs!

    Hey Flora :), looks like such a stunning place to run and a bit fantasy-ish too in some places isn’t it 😍. Hope you all had a great time. Definitely with you guys with the coffee and cake break idea on runs and I need to incorporate this more :). All the best for the weekend

    So good to see a favourite run of mine on here.
    Did you actually go to the Eagle's Nest viewpoint at the top of the 365 steps?
    The tunnel is open during daylight hours from the 1st of April.
    Could I recommend a run via the Devils Pulpit? It's a viewpoint, well worth the effort, especially in the spring when the trees are nice and green. Or in the autumn when the tree canopy is a rainbow.

    • @FloraBeverley

    Great adventure had by all! Glad you found your way back! I'm so glad I watch this as I'm doing the a very similar route this weekend - now can avoid the tunnel in advance 😉. Do you know by chance where the tunnel is? I live across the river near Dursley so am quite fond of a hill or two! Ps. I think I will also stop for a break at the cafe - why not!

    Got my Internet cats whiskers together to tune into your channel tonight Flora. Looks like the gym sessions are paying off big time with your running stamina. I spend three days of the week doing crossfit which has been a real shot in the arm to my stamina as well as physical and mental strength. Just a thought but it would be great to see do a crossfit session one day on your channel.

    • @FloraBeverley
      @FloraBeverley  3 роки тому +2

      Yes I think the gym has definitely been good for my running! Oh I'd love to do crossfit, but there's never enough time for everything! Maybe will do a video of it sometime though 🤗
