I was feeling even more lethargic today as I set out towards Caerphilly Mountain.

Despite this, I managed to drag myself to the top and then enjoyed an easy descent down through Fforest Fawr.

I don’t use this route very often as the section from Fforest Ganol to the golf course is very rocky and then you have to run along the road to reach the snack bar.

There is another route across some fields but they’re always really boggy so I tend to avoid them.

It was nice to have a change of scenery but, again, no blue skies. ☹
