Walking The Run

Yesterday I persuaded Thunderthighs to take Ferretfingers and me around the Woodlawn Xmas Pudding Fun Run Route.   
It goes a lot further South of the Spanish City than I imagined, and had a lot more and steeper slopes.  
Chapeau to all who completed it.
As we approached the Rendevous Cafe Thunderthighs slowed down and said 
"You did mention having a snack here" - so we did.   
We also had a bag of chips when we'd finished.
Any ideas of a walk (3-4miles) we could do next?
FiB  The Rising Sun Country Park has many routes but the Parkrun route is the same distance as the Pudding Run distance. Plenty of parking and rather nice scones at cafe. Might be a good one😀
Mrs Banjoman  Park at the Lowlights car park by the beach in North Shields . Have a look at the Fiddlers Green statue and then walk to Tynemouth on the coastal path.  Then up to the Priory and off to the Longsands, come back through Tynemouth.  Free parking as well.
Or park at Whitley Bay crem , over to the lighthouse and then to Seaton Sluice.
Mrs Allotment  From Seaton sluice to Blyth, stopping off for a coffee at the south beach cafe, beach one way, dunes path the other. Excellent choice of ice-cream😃
A little further away and you could do worse than Plessy Woods, sometimes the cafe is even open....
