Beastly conditions today. Wild winds, crashing waves and lashing rain. So not a particularly quick run, especially the section from the visitors centre up the steep ramps to the top of the head and the trig point. Here you are exposed to natures full force and I must admit that today I walked a few steps past the few ponds behind the fence on the right just after the first ramp up and before the stone obelisk at the bottom of the second ramp. Only about ten paces just to ease the effort in the full force of the wind but managed to shuffle/jog up all the ramps to the trig point. Thankfully this run is almost all on tarmac which is better on an extremely wet day, although there are a lot if puddles but less greasy and muddy than the forest.
Still a lot of dog walkers about and always other runners.
Nice running across the top of the Head with wild, foaming, crashing grey seas below.
Hazy and stormy but very exhilarating at the same time. Not fast in these conditions at all, but good
