Summer in November

Me and the Goats (Ali and Eva) headed up to the Mynd for a run today and did the sensible thing of checking the forecast the day before. The best weather was the afternoon so we headed off after lunch and I thought to brave it in shorts and t-shirt. Felt silly at the start but it was so lovely and warm and sunny that I did not regret my choice (and definitely wasn't smug about it, oh no). It was one of the best Mynd runs I've even done, with just the perfect conditions plus better than normal views plus generally just feeling good and able to keep up with the goats (for once). We stopped for a pint afterwards (would it be a hill run without one?) and actually managed to sit out in the beer garden. Then Ali made us do a detour to Lyth Hill on the way back to watch the sunset and it was the most delightful way to end a superb afternoon on the hills.
