Dartmouth and Totnes that are fun to ride without being technically difficult. For “roadies” the coast road to Salcombe is fast, safe and a joy to cycle. I do avoid the A381 to Totnes as cars come round the bends very quickly from behind which is a little disconcerting! Running outside on grass is better for the legs than getting on a treadmill. Be careful running on tarmac; trainers do not absorb all the shocks caused by running on hard surfaces. If you are more than a little overweight or have knee issues you are better to start with a walking regime until your body has hardened up a little. A great way to build up is to alternate running and walking every 100m.
Begin with 10 minutes a day if that is all you can do. In a couple of weeks you could drop the walking and be able to jog for 20 minutes or so. Coronation Park is ideal for lunchtime training as a few sprints can be more beneficial than 3 or 4 slow miles. Before long you will soon be able to run on the cliff path up to Little Dartmouth and then there will be no stopping you! If your partner wants to go with you they can cycle alongside like an old-fashioned boxing coach. Outdoor swimming is making a comeback in the
South Hams. The two long distance swimming events downriver from Totnes are proof of this. The quieter stretches of the River Dart are clean and can be safe places to swim, although the tides and boats present obvious hazards. There are wonderful beaches for swimming at Blackpool Sands, Slapton, Lancombe and others. Try a swim at Compass Cove, walking back up the steps will warm you up. If you feel the cold, wear a short wetsuit and plimsolls and feel the ziiiing!!! when you come out of the water. Have a go at something new this summer and good
luck!•
