Missed out on the glorious weather yesterday because of real life. So I was glad that I missed out on the rain, but had to run in the mountain clag, which was quite dense, so I still got wet like I've run in the rain.
Still truly enjoyed the run, but didn't have the oomph to do it at speed, which I put down to not feeding myself enough over the last few.

Morning 🌄
11K Hill run this morning, first run with my new ortho - Poron sports heel pad in the FiveFingers - omg, incredible!
Negative splits today, totally unexpected performance
1st: 5k - 38.03
2nd: 5k - 37.26
Total duration was a happy numerical pattern as well: 1:23:45 - I always love pleasing patterns in numbers.
Last Liquid Drum and Bass track in the queue, the sensational 'Henry - Blunt Instrument'

Ah the mountain fog/mist rolled in so I opted for a run in the woods as the views would be obscured anyway. Jolly good run along what is use for snowshoeing and VTT as the locals call it here. Lucky the highway men who were fixing a landslide on the forest track, let me past without paying the toll of running 5km back or adding 4km to the run.
Of course I started to sing the ever so brilliant song "Stand and Deliver" by Adam and the Ants (very much out of tune)

A few, ok many moons ago me and the lass rented mountain bikes and took the ski lift up this slope and gingerly rode down. At one particular steep bit we stopped to reevaluate our life choices, we were overtaken by a young lad. Let's just say that he "dropped by" us, his tyres barely touched the ground as he flew past, pretty much only on the hairpins. Don't think he had ever been introduced to brakes.
Lovely day out for it, just cold enough for Paddy boy if we took it easy and he got to dip in the various melt water streams. Hard to run up and down ski slopes and not stopping to look and this gorgeous place.

Morning all, scenic foot injury rehabilitation run this morning, 20°c, 81% humidity when I set out sunrise.
I did actually run properly today, which felt great, 'I'm on top of the world, Hey'...Not just a happy 'Imagine Dragons' song, but also the name of the hill I ran up, all be it slow & steady, except when I went downhill, well, then I let the brakes off and went for it...and dam it was mad fun!
The old fans of Tour de France among us, will know this bit of road as the real route up the Tourmalet. They have been using the new bit, that Paddy is looking down upon, for at least 15 years. For some reason cyclist wants to use the new road. They are missing out on some of the best parts of the Tourmalet and get to cycle in nostalgia, back when it was real bikes, no electric shifting or carbon. I fast hiked this bit and then tried to be faster on the downhill on the other side of the valley. To be very humbled when a runner just zoomed past, barely had time to reply to his nod before he disappeared into the distance.
