Start 17.15
Took the lightest of my new winter-tyred shoes out for their proper run-in this afternoon/evening. They feel totally different from the other ones. Less built-up under the heel, which is what I want, but it does take a wee bit of getting used to. At the start of the run I felt great, as if I really could go faster in these lightweight shoes. After a while I could feel my calf muscles, not protesting exactly, just registering that there was something different going on. Once out in the dunes I did a lot of picking out the most uneven bits to run on, hip-hopping (huh?) over grassy tufts and bushes and up and down hillocks. Which these shoes 
are ideal for. It was dark by the time I got home and there was a very light fall of sharp sleety type stuff occasionally making itself felt in the air. Somewhere between snow and miniscule needles of hail. But luckily so light that I barely got wet from it. Gave my calves a good rub with lemon oil when I came in and they feel fine now. Climbed in this tree to take a few photos.
