I wasn’t feeling very motivated today with the weather looking particularly grey and bleak but I dragged myself out.

I don’t do many road runs these days but I will incorporate longer flat sections in my trail runs to get some faster miles in.

I felt pretty good after warming up and getting going so I headed through Morganstown and Gwaelod-y-garth on the tarmac then crossed over to Fforest Fawr to finish with some hills.

The Torrent 3s are still performing well and handled the muddy, slick sections with ease.

I stopped under one of the bridges on the Taff Trail to grab today’s photo while sheltering from the rain.
