Clwydian run

With the ultra-cautious cancellation of the Helena Tipping 10k there was an opportunity to enjoy a longer Sunday run in the hills. A complete thaw at lower levels (making the cancellation questionable) but a lot of snow higher up giving great running. Jez and I left Cadole for the long run through the woods to the Cilcain track, then up increasingly thick snow to the ridge. Great running through sunbursts and shifting mist to the Arctic summit and rimed-up tower, before descending the MTB track back down to the Alyn. A nice family walk to Twll Mawr through the quarries above Llanberis later on, as the cloud cleared the summit of Yr Wyddfa.
