Went for a run along lake Annecy in France during the summer.

Was there myself over the summer. Beautiful spot, with very well signposted trails in the mountains:









Got a few runs in along the south coast near the Spanish border too. Some lovely cliff top trails:










Edit: I tried posting the link from Google photos between image tags but it wouldn't work. Does any know how to link from google photos so that the image shows in the post?

Edit 2: Embedding images. Thanks hillsiderunner!

Maynooth - Kilcock canal path. It looks darker than it was, but still, was dark.

If I wake up early, I've started getting a bit of a jog before work, was out around Cork earlier this week & came across:

A boat


A duck at sunrise


A train


A Cork landmark close to where I live


Some amount of traffic as I was heading home, guess due to the ongoing bus strike.

On the advice of a friend, took in a new route up the airport hill at the w/end, some nice views of Cork city & good practice for Connemara next Sun!

I bet you don't miss running back up them though.

I grew up living in a house at the top of a substantial hill, my uphill game was always played on tired legs :pac:

The is a 110km trail called The Suck Valley Way. It runs along the river Suck between Galway and Roscommon, it even runs through part of our farm land and I never even thought to run it until a friend of mine told me that he does. So our plan is to do it section by section, already 30km done. I didn't bring the camera/phone until today but I will from now on. Every time I run a section of it I am buzzing for the week! Bog, fields, forest and small country roads is the order of the day here.

Id rather not identify anyone here on boards without their permission if you don't mind d. Ill let Timmay do that himself if he is that way inclined. Hope you don't mind, don't want to be breaking any rules now do I.

I have no such qualms. Timmay is on the right, in the orange singlet with the black shorts, T-Rex arms, big honker, eyes closed.

A couple of photos from an early morning start in California, heading from San Mateo to the Sawyer Camp Trail. Lots of other runners on the trail, though everybody else seemed to have driven the 7-8 miles up into the mountains to enjoy all that nature has to offer.

Nah, that's dom, I'd know that baldy bollox anywhere. and his eyes aren't closed, they're just those piggy kind that always look closed. Massive honker alright, though.

Love running around Cork City. Always have to make a run up to bells as part of it.

I like these murals that are popping up around Cork, a lot better than the rusty gate that was there before

On the way up Maulin this morning I didn't think I'd be taking the camera out as visibility was down to 10 meters most of the time - but then this beauty stopped to give me the stares until I took a photo

Been doing a lot of my training up here lately, can be horrendously windy at times but is pancake flat, almost an exact 1k loop.
Great to have something like this almost on my doorstep.

Slideways

It looks flat anyway! Does it not drive you bonkers?
I've no choice but to do mine on a 2.3km loop and I absolutely hate it

I need to do most of my running on grass or I'll get injured so it's a necessary evil.
Did 14 miles on it last weekend, 23 laps, jaysus!

This is my favourite places in the world to go for a run. The Barrow Line between St. Mullins Co. Carlow and Graiguenamanagh. It is a very tranquil part of the world with, for the most part, a lovely soft grassy surface to run on. On an evening like when I took these pictures there's nowhere nicer. Unfortunately there are some people who propose having this grass ripped up and replaced by a rough, unbound hardcore surface. This has been done already in places and I have included a photo of one such section which is the last stretch of the line leading into St. Mullins. As you can clearly see it is a rough, potholed mess which is neither suitable for walkers, runners, or the cyclists for which it is intended. This amenity goes from St. Mullins all the way to Athy and would be ruined if a small minority gets its way. From looking at the photos attached what do you all think? Which surface would you prefer to be running on?
