Waun y Llyn long run

Hopelessly behind in my training for two forthcoming marathons, a familiar pattern. This was my first long run since Christmas, and followed a familiar route from home over the shoulder of Hope Mountain to Pontybodkin, then up the steep hill to Treuddyn. Wet snow fell throughout this section, which was rather unpleasant, and I remained cold and damp throughout. After the long haul up to Cae Hic, I was pleased to feel OK for the superb hilly running down to Llanfynydd, before the savage climb back up Waun y Llyn. Around 17m, but a good deal of climbing, so should be of some value for the forthcoming Clwydian marathon - if not London.
