Mawgan Porth-Bedruthan Steps-Porthcothan run

After an excellent morning enjoying the body-boarding on this lovely low-key beach (much nicer than Polzeath), I got a bit cold. I wanted to see the Bedruthan Steps, so ran along the coast path in a northerly direction. The usual superb coastal scenery and spectacular secluded coves, and the usual tough running with lots of climbing. The impressive Bedruthan is reached very quickly, then fine running past Pentire Steps to Park Head and an initially inland route over to Porth Mear. I went a bit further on towards Porthcothan then just reversed the route, but sticking religiously to the coast path, in light rain: around an hour at a reasonably quick pace. The sun came out back at Mawgan Porth, so it was time for a pasty then more surf with the family.
