RE: Season 2016
Tuesday
No run on Sunday so went today.
Had the day off due to carnival festivities and so a longish lunch time run was possible. And Spanish lunches are long.
A slice of pie (empanada) and half a lager was enough for me and then I was off on the “Tour de Monte Pajariel”. This is a circular route that involves one long climb, a short steep descent and quite a lot of flattish trail and road. It goes around the frequently mentioned hill but steers clear of the summit.
The conditions were bordering on “Swederesque” but hey, the wind was never more than blustery and the rain was almost vertical so it couldn’t have been that bad. There was mud aplenty though and the quick dash down to the Oza Valley on the other side of Pajariel was made more interesting, the stony path having quite literally split down the middle. Some great body of water, I suspect from a burst pipe or some underground canal, had cut a deep gully which resembled the aftermath of an earthquake. Followed the jagged crevice for about a km, leaping frequently from side to side. It was 10 feet deep in places so at times I was forced to double back when the leap was longer than I liked. Completed the circle running through the village of Toral de Merayo and along the River Sil back to home. No hunters, no dogs, no adrenaline, heavy legs from all that leaping, very tired indeed.
1 hour 15 minutes.
