Two months have gone by since I last updated my blog, and I'm not sure where those weeks have gone.
There has been plenty of walking (no Munros, as I suspected), a fair bit of running (including a sub-25 minute parkrun at the beginning of December which I was really chuffed with!), and lots of mini adventures. Safe to say there has also been some difficult times, fraught with anxiety and worrying, feeling trapped in the vicious circle of self-doubt and low self-esteem.
I'm just getting over a nasty two week cold which has limited my activity somewhat. I'm not quite ready to reflect on 2017 yet (that will come next week in my annual round up!) but it has certainly been an interesting and transitional year.
I am already looking forward to 2018's adventures, and am feeling positive about the year ahead (yes that may have something to do with the fact that the number-loving OCD part of me prefers even numbered years!!).
As my writing has been a bit lacking recently, I'll finish this short post with some pictures of the last two months. Tomorrow Dave and I head to Loch Awe for a few days with friends, and I'm looking forward to bringing in 2018 in a beautiful place...
