Further explore of the hill to the west of Nelson, run here three times before and have never ended up doing what I intended, and today was no different. Found some nice new bike trails and cut back trough the tunnel, which was a bit sketchy without a light - was good to know that GD44 had been through recently and as he's not mentioned and invisible chasms, I thought I was safe enough - bricks from the tunnel roof on the floor a bit disconcerting in places though.

Legs still in recovery mode after last weekend (stupid things) so no long run this weekend, instead exploring a few new bits of the VoG. Certainly the best time of year to run there, before there are seas of nettle, brambles or crops everywhere.

Dragged myself quite late, but it was still plenty sunny and warm. Had a nice pootle exploring a few dead-ends that I'd not been along and stopped on CyA to watch the mountains bikers on the big jumps across the valley in Caerphilly Ranch.

Bumped into Lucy and Nadijia on the way off CyA and stopped for chat, where upon I watch reset, so this was the last bit home. Lucy bought a house in Newbridge (near Cwmcarn).

In Merthyr for a site visit so took an extended lunch and explored a bit more of Mynydd Gethin - think there's probably a map in it from the Aberdare side. legs still slow but it was just glorious to be be running through pine woods in the sun. Very much enjoyed.

Yet another glorious day so didn't have any excuse not to get out, other than my body wasn't excessively keen. Managed to talk it around and got out for just about the minimum acceptable amount.

Lovely evening trot around Llandegfedd Revervoir with Mark, Alice and Martyn. Legs still shot from the weekend so they appreciated and easy pace and not too many hills. Route was much nice than I was expecting and most of the path was off road - only one hedge to climb through!

Very easy recovery day after the weekend. Just wanting to get out to loosen the legs off, but a beautiful sunny evening so walked a bit further than I was planning.
