A morning run at Lough Key Forest Park

After a 5k run on the treadmill yesterday I was delighted that my friend Caroline had asked if I would go running with her today. She is just starting back into running and is happy to have me as a running buddy (at least that's what she said ;o)). So hopefully this will be one of many runs.

Cara - all excited about the run

An unexpected hike up Sliabh an Iarainn

Friday evening I got home from work, all set to clean the house for a party we were having on Saturday evening. As we had planned to hit the big smoke in the morning we wouldn't have much time during the day to get anything done. At 7pm we got a phone call from our next door neighbour, who is also a local mountain guide, asking us if we would like to join him and his grandson for a hike to the summit of Sliabh an Iarainn. Initially we said we were too busy, but thinking about it again (for about 2 seconds) we agreed to go with them.
