For 10 divine days I was lucky to laze & dream away the days in the sweet sunshine on pristine shores. With an early wake up every morning of a 40 minute run just as the sun rose up high & radiated it's intense bright energy, it got pretty hot!
Now even in heaven on some mornings I felt the power & others I had to focus on the waves softly lapping on the sand to deflect the pain of relentless running in heat & sand running is something else (note to self for 250k desert run).
But mostly I was appreciative; to be alive & able to be participating in paradise. & I found a dream yoga space, it was at a resort aptly named 'sanctuary' & there's no better place to do sun salutations than facing the sparkly bright blue sea & sky with the sounds of the ocean kissing your senses.
On my runs I'd pass couples of all ages on early morning romantic strolls, the diving boats taking out their snorklers for fun with the fish (& sharks!!), a pair of yogis practising their asanas or a discarded cocktail by a hedonistic reveller from the beach party only just finished at sunrise. I'd jump over the waves that caught me by surprise & I'd leap into the ocean just as I'd finished my laps of the beach for 'one of those moments of sheer joy'.
In 10 days I ran x7 times & I did yoga x4 times ~ perfect holiday exercise.
Feeling refreshed & ready for my round the world fashion trip now...
Sharing my love for this beautiful part of the world, koh lanta luvs xox
