Walk 2: Perranporth to Newquay
Our second walk was a VERY different experience to the first... The weekend of the 24th January, we planned to get going first thing on Saturday. However, with stormy weather on Friday and heavy rain overnight, we needed a bit of extra time to make a judgement about what we should do. In the end, we set off later in the morning (11.30am) and decided to walk along Perranporth Beach, onto Holywell and then as far towards Newquay as we could manage. The weather seemed to be more on our side as we headed out. The wind was calmer and, apart from the odd shower, the rain had stopped. We knew the paths might be muddy but dressed accordingly with proper hiking boots. However, my first mistake was deciding to take both dogs. I wouldn't risk either of them not being leaded on a cliff edge and this led to difficulty. The walk along Perran beach was lovely. This is my favourite running ground, although I have swapped in my morning runs for full-time work in Penair library, hence my drop...
