Do you have a special place where you like to go running? I have Tentsmuir forest, it was totally out my way but I went there yesterday on my way home, an extra 7 miles but it was so cool. It always gives me a lift running along the beach paths in the sun it was totally worth it!

From Dundee it’s across the bridge and east through Tayport on the coast road. If you don’t want to run there there is a great car park and picnic area you can drive to which is a great place to start exploring and a short walk to the beach. It was full with families having burgers and sausages, I was so jealous! You can also park in Tayport and walk or run out through the caravan park which means you can stop at the pub for a drink or food on your way home.

Hidden away behind a little cabin at the picnic area there is a cold water tap that runners like me can get a cold drink from. An old running friend showed me it years ago and I’m so glad he did because miles from anywhere is usually the time you want a drink the most!
