I know I probably shouldn’t blog about every Thursday run. It would get a bit dull. But do I want to blog about this one.
We started from Llanberis again, as we had done a lot recently. I was hoping that this time, we would do a sensible route. Not like the previous stomps over Elidir Fawr and Moel Eilio! And it started reasonable. We headed into the valley below the Llanberis path over a gravel road. It was gorgeous! I had actually never been there. And as we had had so many times recently: the weather was amazing.

Of course, sooner or later it went weird; we did start trundling off track, and went up slopes that were too steep to run. And difficult for me to run down. This was on the flanks of Moel Cynghorion. But we didn't go all the way up.

I had expected a modest run as those who were interested in that were going to have pizza afterwards, and the restaurant had been booked for 8 pm. But it looked like running was more important than pizza. It was 8:30 by the time we were back at the cars.
I hadn't signed up for the pizza; that would be a bit much as I had had a caving trip the night before, and would be seeing Jenny the night after. I sometimes need to just be home, and in bed early. And clearly we got more running than I had anticipated, but this time it had stayed within reason, and it had been a lovely night!
The week after I'm not running. And who knows what the situation will be the week after that! The weather might have completely turned by then…
