Running in the Peak..

With heavy and frequent rain showers in the Peak District this afternoon, I decided that a run was probably the best bet.

I left Burbage North in strong winds and sleet showers to do a circuit of the Burbage Valley, and Higgar Tor before visiting Stanage Pole. It was generally quiet but not everybody was hitting the plastic; there were a few hardy folk at Burbage North and Stanage!

Despite the heavy showers the rock was dry due to the strong winds, and with a great forecast tomorrow it's definitely worth heading out.

I will be heading over to North Wales to do some climbing with students from Liverpool John Moores University, fingers crossed for some good weather.

Finally, for the observant the picture is actually from the Lowe Alpine Mountain Marathon in Assynt, North West Scotland - Not Burbage North!....
