| The flood plains of the Derwent....... flooding |
Unlike some of you out there no 'epics' for us, no races or trips out this week, just training runs with the pester hound. That's not to say it was without drama. The weekends weather made running in the in the burbs much more fun.
Just in case you hadn't noticed the weather Dawns Open 5 Adventure race and 4Winds, Arnold Lane post give a good description of how wet and windy it's been up in the hills.
On a smaller scale, another mini drama was unfolding. Snowdrops, natures reminder that spring is just around the corner.
Hi Steve, loads of water about, got out around Thorpe and the Dove Dale was flooded. Hope you're well, not seen you out for a while.
ReplyDeleteDamp. We fared little better at Mickleden. Just got to get next weekend (in Bury) out of the way then we're on for that recce. I'll send you an email Steve.
ReplyDeleteNice shot of the snowdrops. There's a little church on Dartmoor which has a sign up at this time of year inviting visitors to have a look at the snowdrops. Round the side the bank's carpeted in them. Fair takes your breath away.
ReplyDeleteSnowdrops - the botanical equivalent of a sigh of relief...
