Part 3, but no ice


Out in the forest at Waterloo again. The overnight thaw had continued and daytime temperatures were well above freezing, so virtually all of the snow & ice had gone, being replaced by gravel & mud. I ran a similar route to yesterday, just a bit quicker as it was easier to stay upright.
It is quite pleasant running through the woods, generally the paths are well surfaced & there weren't too many people around. After a busy week, however, I was a bit tired to go too far or too quickly.

This afternoon the cultural part of the trip was a visit to the battlefields, including a climb up the 226 steps to the monument, La Butte de Lion (above).
Tomorrow is the journey back home, so almost certainly no running.
