Very hard work, hills were difficult, and topped by a lane filled with a sea of hedge to hedge waist high nettles

Last chance for a run this month, I have been terrible.

Ventured up a previously impassable lane, after some volunteer work. Perhaps I will return in the summer when it is not a flowing stream

I managed another one. Two new footpaths covered too. Unfortunately one was an ancient sunken lane that had a concrete field drain into it, so was a full flowing stream bed. Overall very enjoyable

Could not procrastinate any longer, when the temperature reached 9° I went, and feel good for it now

So I did it. Fantastic sunshine. Horizon to horizon rainbow but not in the direction I was going so no rain. River roaring but not on the riverbank paths. More than happy I did that

OK, I managed to do it. After 40 days of travelling, illness and recovery I got out there and did a reasonable run. Hampered by wind and the Wye flooding from the recent storm, it was actually a beautifully sunny and warm day.

Salomon Speedcross 4 nearing the end of their useful life after nearly 100 runs and 840k. Not sure how clean I will get them now

Dragged another one out. It was so warm I could not say no, though it has been three weeks since my last run so I have been saying no a lot.

Another week, another run. Perhaps I should run more often but not as far, it takes me a week to get it together for the next

I've avoided it for two weeks, but today the weather broke and I ran. In the rain, lovely and cool

New shoes, so not a long run (exactly the same shoes as the last 8 pairs - 3 still in use, I like to rotate them) but I thought I'd ease them in

My legs are still buzzing from wading through 2k of knee high nettles. It was mainly OK last time I went that way a few months back. Not very fast

Finished exploring Harewood End. Industrial agriculture I did not mean to visit. Fruit growing polytunnels and then past a collection of the Wye valleys (in)famous intensive chicken rearing warehouse sheds.

First run for months. Combination of sickness, weather (did not used to be a problem) and cba

Took some photos so as to have some rests

Knee is pretty buggered from hitting the ground at full pelt, toe I stubbed on a tree root is none too clever either. Nearly rolled into the stream too. #running #trailrunning #WyeValley #Hoarwithy #smashrun

The Wye has been very brown the past couple of days. Must be soil from Wales.

Need to find another way through, out of sight of landowner #running #WyeValley #Hoarwithy #trailrunning #smashrun

There is a 100m stretch between a right of way and National Trust property where the landowner has rescinded a permissive path. Alternatives are the A49, a busy road with no footpath, or backtracking several km to another, not so busy road, but narrow and also no path. I usually nip through, spotted by the owner who would not listen to reason (I think am reasonable)
