Things are feeling distinctly autumnal round here right now. My long weekend runs often take me through woodland, and each week I notice more leaves on the ground. This is one of my favourite routes. Eight miles, down a main road at first but then up through this local nature reserve, along what used to be an old carriage track in the days when this was hunting ground. At the top, there are views out over the reservoirs and the city - better on a sunny day bit still impressive in the grey autumn light. The bank slopes steeply down to a rocky stream, which I love to walk alongside but is too higgley piggledy for running. You'd be forgiven for thinking all I ever did was run these days, but you'd be quite wrong. Most of my other activities don't feel very photogenic, but there are still plenty of them. Last weekend we played as part of a local classical music festival in the Winter Gardens, where, bizarrely, musicians stood under a giant inflatable e.coli bacterium. This morning it's grey and wet, and I'm off to curl up with my knitting until it's time to help a friend move her shed. The half marathon is next week and of course we're not remotely prepared, but we're going to take a breakfast picnic and we'll get a medal at the end and I imagine it'll be a grand day out regardless.
In the meantime, I might try and take some photos of something other than scenery on a run...

How long did I work in Sheffield and never stepped foot in the Winter Gardens. Must rectify that
