Area: Brecon Beacons
In recovery mode for a few days, but also en route to Cardiff in nice weather so I did a quick reprise of the dull route up Pen y Fan from Storey Arms that I did with M a few years ago (immediately after the Farndon 10k and shortly before contracting glandular fever). I can't think of a duller and less scenic route up any UK mountain, really, but it does have some virtues as a quick outing. Hundreds if not thousands of people on it, and I was tired, but did keep a decent pace ticking over but without much running. I was on Corn Du in around 30 minutes, very hot and humid throughout, then across to the crowded top of Pen y Fan with a red kite flying around. Then a jogged descent all the way down: 52 mins in total.
