Ive managed to get out for a run everyday so far this week bar yesterday, trying to make the most of this cold crisp spell before the inevitable return of the murk.
Today, 11.47 miles, 2 hrs 39min, 2961 feet ascent. There's still a decent covering of snow on the higher ground plus many of the higher ascents and descents and it lays in shallow drifts on most of these pathless, dead bracken and tussock grass covered slopes, just enough for it to become tiresome after a while. The ground seems to have become increasingly harder and icier over the course of the week.
