Fitness test walk

Uphill - steep in places.
Stuggled a bit at first but got going in the end and made it to my objective.

It was a sunny morning and good to hear all the bird calls.

I had a few interesting conversations with people I met. 2 middle aged men were using this walk as a warm up for Snowdon next weekend. They are going for track Pyg Track  and we discussed gaining height early or my choice Miners track easier going at first steeper when the paths meet.

The weather deteriorated in the afternoon and evening as anyone watching the Manchester City v Newcastle  game on TV would see as the heavy rain arrived.
