A trip to Roseberry Topping for today's run. It was windy and drizzly when we walked the dog but the weather was worse when we got to Great Ayton. On the top of Roseberry Topping we nearly got blown off, the views were stunning though,
you could even see the sea, but it was dangerous trying to get down, but we survived and ran against the wind to Captain Cook's monument. It was like running against a bungee chord. At Captain Cooks Im sure the wind had increased, I tried to go around the monument holding the rails but couldn't even get half way round. We ran back past the memorial for the airmen and through the woods, this was the best bit all day, the trees sheltered us and it was downhill on a good path. Then back to Roseberry, we decided not to go up it again but ran around it and back to the car. 6.6 miles with nearly 700 m of ascent. Very pleased.
After lunch I did my turbo session for Turbovember4, I had to do a 90 minute session. My tablet would not pick up internet so I stuck a slideshow of my photos on. I have thousands of photos so it was great. I even watched our vow renewal at the Outlaw finish line in 2013
A run on the wild side. Well done for braving the elements....
