A view of the moon setting while I was running this morning

[RunaroundSue Graduate10]

Very nice

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to RunaroundSue]

So the new song is not Fly me to the Moon but RUN ME TO THE MOON

[Grannyhugs Graduate10]

Beautiful, 2021 I will stop and take photos🤣

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to Grannyhugs]

You can download an app called RELIVE, after that you can link it to Strava, Mapmyrun, etc, then you will see where you have run and have taken any photos.

[Grannyhugs Graduate10 in reply to AlMorr]

I first have to learn to actually stop during a run and look around🤣 then get the phone out.

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to Grannyhugs]

To be honest with you Grannyhugs I very rarely stop to take a photograph, however, with the conditions today and not bothering about my running time I thought it would be a good idea to take a photo of the moon setting and the sun rising when out my run, I would not do that on a Saturday morning when running a (not) parkrun, that would make my age grading lower than it would be if I stopped to take a photo, by the way I have just posted a photo of the sun rising when I was out this morning.

That's a belter!!

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

Glad you like that photograph GTFC, the Primary School in the foreground no longer uses that football pitch and it's now open for anyone to use.

Glad you like it Birdlady64 😊🏃🏾

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to Instructor57]

[Instructor57 Graduate10 in reply to AlMorr]

[EThomas Graduate10]

What a fantastic picture and a great location to run.

Happy New Year

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to EThomas]

A happy New Year to you EThomas, it's a nice place for me to run if it's very icy or wet, I only live a two minute walk away.

[Scruff55 60minGraduate]

Lovely photo. I watched the moon set this morning too while on my last run of 2020. Happy New Year to you and thanks for your support over this mad year 👏👏👏👏

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to Scruff55]

A happy New year to you Scruff55, I am thinking of posting the other photo I took 4 minutes later of the sun rising. 😊 when I was running this morning. 🏃🏾

[Oldgirlruns Graduate10]

Lovely view Alan, you still have your snow I see!

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to Oldgirlruns]

The snow has been around since Sunday morning, its not all that deep and has not caused any traffic problems whatsoever, however, there are some icy patches on untreated pavements, that's why I ran on that disused football pitch.

On my normal route more than half is never gritted or salted even where the private housing estate is, I am not sure why that is, the council salts where the council houses are but not any private housing estates.

Glad you like it Hedgehogs123,

[Hedgehogs123 Graduate10]

Love photos like that, it's a good reminder that there are some beautiful things in life that are free if we only look around us.🏃‍♀️

[Run46 Graduate10]

Lovely photo Al, nice to take the time to enjoy the view now and then while running. Well done on still getting out in the snow!

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to Run46]

I took that photograph at around 9 am on Wednesday, if it had been this morning, certainly there wouldn't have been any moon, it was snowing at 9 am today.

[Slothgoesrunning Graduate10]

Great photo! Those distance hills would make for a challenging run! Happy new year AlMorr 🎉

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to Slothgoesrunning]

Those distance hills are called The Campsie Fells, many "moons ago" I used to cycle on some of the small roads that go up them, I never ran there, the trees on the hill just below the snow is on a hill called Barr Hill, there are the remains of a Roman Fort on Barr Hill, also, part of a trail route is on Barr Hiil through the trees you see.

[Slothgoesrunning Graduate10]

Reading this I now want to be travelling and definitely to include more around Scotland! One day when we are able to go a wandering again 😷

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to Slothgoesrunning]

I wish you a Happy New year, I Googled on Google Maps "Campsie Fells", there is a map and plenty of lovely photos of that area, including some very wintry views.
