Ras Moel Wnion

First fell race for ooh, ages. 4m, 1600ft ascent, finished in 47:52 or there abouts. Sounded like I was being pursued by a wild boar for most of the race, which was a shame as otherwise it was a lovely run - the tops of the Carneddau covered in snow, wild ponies mooching around, shame the moment was spoilt by the CONSTANT hacking, snorting and spitting of some animal behind me. I'll take my iPod next time :)

Moel Elio in pea soup

Solo ascent of Moel Elio tonight in thick fog which just reflected my head torch back at me, so I couldn't see a thing. Consequently the descent took about as long as the ascent. 1h15.

Beddgelert Blast

Sunday morning I spanked the Karate Monkey around Beddgelert forest for an hour, which was fun.
Did nothing on Monday, but got in a 20 min easy run with Pippa this morning.

Double run

Pre breakfast 20 min easy run with Pippa. Then fitted a new sauna and finished the bathroom ceiling.
Went out later in the afternoon for a run up Moel Ici - 1h20 after doing a few extra bits.
LLAMFF was a dissapointing end to the day.

Day 3

The wheels fell off. Too knackered to go out for a ride at 9pm so it all ended a bit quickly. Ah well.
Went for a run on Tuesday night, 2 min hill reps * 5.
Wednesday night ride - petit tour de Moel Ici.
Thursday - run around padarn lake.
Friday - nothing again.

30 in 30 - Day 2

An unexpected nice (ish) day so I fired up the road bike for it's first outing in months. Back roads to Bangor, then Llanberis and home. 1h 45. Felt knackered since then. Still, only another 28 days left. They're forecasting snow tomorrow....

30 from 30 - The start

Well, no posts for some time, can't be bothered to fill in the last few months, sorry.

So, I fell into agreeing to some stupid challenge to ride atleast an hour a day for 30 consectutive days. March is going to be an interesting month.

Today was Day 1, met papa Makin, 360, Benji, and The Midget at Llanrwst for Midget's birthday ride. Did the Marin + Deviations to take in little lakes and Green Gulley - 2 1/2 hours of much fun. 1 down, 29 to go.
