Run with Matt in Waterfall country exploring places that I'd not been to before, and they were all great. Found some lovely spots and even a new waterfall . Lots of scrambling over trees and rocks and rivers so the pace was very slow (almost stoop on a goose sitting on her eggs at one point) but it felt like a long way. Good fun.

Gravel bike with Mark to Ponty and Pentyrch. Thought this would be a nice easy day for the legs but they were not up for it at all, so kept this very slow (not really a choice) and let Mark charge off. A few bits of new trails but mostly road. Nice sunny morning but quite a cool wind. Enjoyable.

Head really not wanting to do this so set of with the intention of doing as little as possible. legs felt rough heading out but then really surprised me by actually feeling okay. Still and slow recovery jog but it ended up being much more enjoyable than I'd thought possible when heading out. Trails a little sticky in places after a bit of rain this morning.

Après chiropractor explore of northern Cardiff. Not the most sensible time to run but didn't have any other opportunity today. Took it easy, bother to be kind to my legs and to my back - although my legs wouldn't have allowed for much more anyway. Found some new cut-throughs and OSM errors to update.

Bit of an unusual wander around the north side of the Garth seeing as they've finished felling the woods. Legs couldn't cope with hills and were spent by the end, even though this was really slow. Another bitterly cold but reasonably nice day.

With Martyn exploring around Abercynon. Didn't have a map so mostly guess work, but we somehow managed to stay legal. Legs had nothing in them and there was a lot more climb in this than they wanted! Weather after turning Baltic, it was sunny but still had legging, a thermal, jacket and a buff on. Foun some nice new trails which will go into an upgraded MDC route at some time.

Wanting flat and easy and another nice day, felt like I had to get out as a bank holiday but it also didn't feel like the day to make a real effort as I needed recovery. So ticking off the rather depressing 10km of the coast path through Newport fitted the bill. Thankfully I had Rcro for company which helped take my mind of the tedium of running along flat straights roads, especially on tired legs.
