Another 1000m of EG. On very icy, snowy and muddy technical trails/offtrail. Also with a lot of water on them - half way up the calves. It gave me a good time on feet - needed 5h for the 30km - I planned for 6h - during the summer I do it in 4h. Including some partly sketchy scrambling ups and downs. One of those was a little waterfall today. It was fun. And I am glad I made it without a tumble. (No pictures as I left the phone in the running vest and the gloves on my hands)

A jog in the fog.

New PB at #parkrun this morning, and my best age-graded 5k. Local Parkrun is at the former USAF nuclear site at Greenham Common. It’s now a lovely country park. Waited around for my son and wife to finish, then jogged home on my own for another 9km through West Berkshire. #trailrunning

Head and shoulders pic of me, a grey-bearded chap wearing a black beanie hat. I’m stood in front of some bare trees at the edge of a field with the track running off behind me.

Screenshot from the Parkrun app showing my results this morning. Time 23 minutes and 55 seconds is a new personal best. My age grading is 65.37 percent which is another personal best.

Photo looking at the track in front of me, heading along the edge of a field gently downward to the valley bottom. The sun is trying to shine through some dappled grey clouds.

I enjoyed my run this morning. Very muddy on some of the trails, with some good puddle hopping. The sun shone and it was just lovely being out.

Sunlight fields of green grass stretch away from my feet. A moody sky above, some blue poking through the white and grey clouds. The distant hills of the forest of Dean can be seen. Up ahead a small Spaniel can be seen thoroughly enjoying being out.

Today's long-run through forest, dunes, beach and fields: all the beautiful nature around me.
I discovered a new path along the canal to Ghyvelde. It's not entirely finished, still some brambles to be gone with. They left scratches on my legs.

As an extra treat, I could pet 2 friendly dogs. ☺️

I was hoping for a sunrise, but it was too misty.

❝When you strip away the noise of segment leaderboards, prizes, and the magenta graphics, what’s left is something disarmingly simple: absurdity, inclusivity, and a shared human experience. People, choosing day after day, to show up and do the same strange thing together.
