Some terrain and trails. Both of which had snow, increasing in depth with height.
Track after first terrain section was clear enough but when the climbing started the snow increased in depth.
Spotted a runner on the track in front of me just before Killegy House, so usual story, had to catch and pass! Caught him at the other side of the open area but at this stage I realised there was another runner in front of him. Then caught another one higher up and finally a 4th runner. Really didn’t expect to meet anyone. Not sure why they were out but I’m sure they were wondering what I was doing, they were a group of sorts.
Went to the top but with most/low cloud there was no visibility. Decided against going straight down so followed the track downhill which was much easier running than going up.
Bit more terrain to get back to the car. Left calf/Achilles wasn’t feeling too good nearing the top of the climb but legs felt better after finishing than they did on Friday. Less road today I suppose.
