My Morning Run

The folk over at Women's Running HQ have restarted 'my morning run', where you can email, Facebook or Tweet them your morning run pictures and they choose their favourite each day.

There is nothing quite like seeing the waves breaking on the beach in Cornwall, or someone experiencing a lovely sunrise on their run, to inspire you to drag yourself out of bed, pull on your trainers and get yourself out there.

That is, until you step outside and remember that you actually live in the city centre and the majority of the sights you seen on your run are abandoned shoes/umbrellas/booze (delete as appropriate) or if you're really lucky, someones sick from the night before. Mmmm what a treat.

However, undeterred by these beautiful memories I set off with #mymorningrun in mind and was pleased that Manchester managed to throw up some autumnal goodies this morning.

The canal

Autumnal river

And if that wasn't enough, it appears that Nike+ reward you with a little pumpkin trophy if you run on Halloween...

Happy snapping!
