The weather was shockingly nice today, the best yet probably, so I decided, after spending a few good hours in the library, to run up and around Arthur's Seat. I'm so glad I did, because it was really beautiful today.
I ran up part way, took a couple photos, and then continued on a bit. I found an excellent single track trail which runs parallel to my usual route, part of which is on concrete. This side trail eliminates half the concrete bit, making it much more enjoyable!
Above are some photos of the new trail I found. It's muddy, but very nice.
It was sunny, but still icy
And more ice
I took quite a few pauses for photos...
After running halfway around, I got to the best part: the technical stairs down to the road again.
Down, down, down to end a great run!
