Last night was the start of the toad season! There were dozens of them on the tow path when I was out walking Max. Even spotted a newt!

The Nolly Brig plaque and mural under the bridge at Firhill Road in #Glasgow near the #ForthAndClydeCanal
I can see you!
Not bad for someone in their fifties who'd never really done any long-distance running before starting this challenge!

My long run today took me up along the Forth and Clyde. Canal, where there's always an interesting sight or two to be had, but this morning's run was a bit of a special one for me. For some still unknown reason (alcohol might possibly have been involved!), at the start of 2021 I set myself the seemingly unlikely target of running a half marathon around the streets of Glasgow every month for the next 60 months. Today, I completed number 60!

It's great to see these polychromatic brick former industrial buildings on the Forth and Clyde Canal in the Ruchill area of Glasgow brought back into use in a very sympathetic way. They were built around the 1870s and were once part of the Glasgow Lead and Colour Works.

Out with dad, trying to take some photos, but the weather is changing every few minutes.
Golden #autumn sun two minutes before I took this, then grey rain, & wind shaking more leaves from the branches, sunny again moments later.

The beautiful World Egg hidden inside the mouth of Bella the Beithir, a sculpture by Nichol Wheatley at the Stockingfield Junction on the Forth and Clyde Canal in Glasgow.
The Beithir is a lightening serpent most commmonly seen on summer evenings during thunderstorms. The world egg is carried inside her mouth is a symbol of hope. You have to get right up close and peer between Bella's teeth to be able to see it.
