Foot deep snow in lots of places, or even deeper. Windy and cold too.

The first of the three Welsh peaks today, wet, and very busy with people. Cloud from half way up to the summit.

Felt a real hotspot on my left heel when running down, turns out I have a large (bigger than 50 pence piece) blister on the bottom of my heel. Luckily it wasn't noticable on the rest of my runs this weekend.

On the way home after 6 hours mtb at Nant Y Arian. In the dark with Zebralight H52, medium M1 (54 lumens) and even M2a 27lm (possibly b 13lm not sure) was enough to speed walk up by. Also took the Thrunite Ti3 and on full that had plenty of light (120 lumen) and medium (12 lumen) was enough to walk by). Running down had the light on max nut it bounced around too much on my head.

Cear sky, no wind, very bright stars. 2 tents on the summit.
