shoes: X-Talons 212 WK2

Making the most of a free day to mount an expedition on the western face of Puig d'Olorda. Really loving the scrambly trails winding though the trees in the second valley away from the city, but they're only really accessible if you're in the mood for big miles, although maybe that just means I have to savour them more. At any rate, a fantastic outing.

Got the email yesterday about another MapRun-esque course in another Barcelona park put on by the club and since I was already unsure about what to do today, I went for it. The course by the nature of the area was rather hilly, but for as far as most park-O goes it was pretty good stuff. The map is a few years old so the vegetation was a bit random which kept things interesting (especially in shorts), but even so there some reasonable nav required at points with a lot of similar looking features all over the place. Good fun. Glad I went.

Home via the gunsites and Parc Güell. Much nicer and much better views than the way there.

Had vaguely been planning to enjoy some evening Collserola but got an offer for some spontaneous outdoor socialising instead so opted for that instead. Had just about enough time to squeeze this in though.

shoes: Mizuno Wave Riders 24

Went for a bit of steady Montjuïc, which all was going well until 30mins in when things started to go downhill (in multiple senses) and I got blindsided by a pretty killer stitch - I had known it was a risk before starting as I was running pretty soon after lunch, but needs must. Chilled a bit and it eventually eased off, but things were always a bit ropey after that.

shoes: Mizuno Wave Riders 24

Still feeling kind of tired so just went for an evening wander. Something about the Collblanc area completely screws up my internal bearings every single time, but managed to save things before I got too off course.

More exploring the wonders of L'Hospitalet De Llobregat. Some of it is quite nice, some of it is quite meh.

Needed some outside time and nothing appealed more than some Collserola time so went for some climbs. Feeling tired but took things very chill so it's all good.
