Thanks Flossie, the photos don't really do it justice, I love it when it's frosty though, it's a bridleway that is quite well used, so the first half can get very muddy and slippy, then gets a 'no go' for a while - I have been known to face plant.....😄

The crunchy sound was really loud! It was a part of the track that has bark chipping so it was like running over loads of dry twigs.

I'm surprised mine stayed on, even the gloves...... I have to make sure I have either my pocket belt or a top with zip pockets to stuff gloves and hat/buff into.....but not today......air temp must have been minus something.....❄️😄

I know, and there's still another load to get through for new year.....hard work! 😉

I am very, very lucky to have such views and surroundings nearby, I never tire of occasionally just stopping and looking.......a tonic in our apparently great technological 'modern' life.... 😉

Thanks Floss, it was crowded 😂 (!) There were two other runners and two dog walkers, one of which I said to, 'beautiful morning, just lovely' she looked a little puzzled in her thick coat and woolly hat.....😄..... that was just after the really crunchy path which was just a delight.....😄
