And then having such cold toes from the snow which all added to the fun!..
Am not big into running and navigating at the same time and cause of this I almost took bad turn but a wee break in the clouds made me see where I was going and soon looked to my compass and re-fixed my route and on with the run..
Happy it go off route as its only my 2nd time EVER!! and last time was in deep in fog which am sure has happened to many of us!!
But we all need to learn from our mistakes !!!
So on with the good running and after living Lough Ferrib I started to think FECK this all I want to take some pics and didn't want to run all day with the compass!!! hehe
And cause it was so COLD up there my Hydration Pack didn't want to work haha it was COLD!!! more great fun!!
SO headed for Tonelagee Summit and soon as I started to run down Turlough hill I could start to see everything again! that's what I love the most about mountain running you can see for miles!!! mountains after mountains!!!
So not known where I was going now as I had planned other route and I said I'll let me legs take me away...
Heading up Tonelagee then I said OK let's run over to "Mall Brook" - "Aska Pond" and then to "Brockagh ~Summit" and back to Glendalough and then see how I feel when get there and see the time as I had to meet Eva etc...
So ran strong and fast in the snow which was great fun NO FOG!! but it did start to snow which was ace!!! people the falling snow is always the best feeling !!! running off some places had its time when I was about to give up running and walk I just keep fallen into bog holes you can't see them in the snow ha! but started to hurt my legs from the Ice!! anyhow ran on with the fun of more PICS!!!!
And so I ran ran and ran!!! and O yes STOPPED for pics...
one of my best things I love doing while up the mountains PICS!!!!!!!
