Holiday running

Whilst my marathon running friends were doing final long runs or running Blackpool, I'm lolling around on holiday.

Having had another lie in went out from the cottage with L for run, it's remote and hilly here so I satisfied myself with some long uphill efforts and regrouping with L.

We did a bit of a big dipper along forest roads and tracks trying not land in the valley bottom.

She's doing well the missus and I'm feeling stronger. We saw the sea, a nuclear power station, a lake, Snowden, a telephone mast, a disused mine building, some daff's, lots of Welsh mountains and a few sheep.

A sl more brisk run for me than yesterday, though no great distance, but balancing family and self is a dilema on holiday.

We then roused the offspring and headed down to the George with the bikes and cycled along the estuary to Barmouth and back on a beautiful day for cycling. One off those afternoons when it all works out just right.

So 9km hill running and 25km cycling.
