stress test - Midnitemo - 12 September 2021
I subjected myself to Health stress test a few days ago , I was a little concerned that my health and fitness was ebbing away so i set a challenge of walking up a new mountain(well new to me anyway) took my daughter and Border Terrier along for moral support , The mountain chosen was Cader Idris , we set off at midday on the easiest of routes(the Pony Path) for a fairly tough six hour walk according to Naismith's rule , very pleased that we got up and down in the allotted 6 hours(just) with a couple of breaks on the ascent and a couple on the descent (Naismith's rule doesn't allow for stops) and we brewed up at the top which is a tradition of mine which on this occasion was nicer than usual as we had a stone Bothy to shelter in , very pleased with myself as i didn't keel over and die on the mountain and the aches and pains afterwards only lasted 3 days , I have for about the last 6 years had a bit of a dodgy ticker(AF) been managing it without meds so far with diet and excercise , i think i've got a taste for it again so more mountain's are being considered(like to re climb my favourite to show daughter..Rhinog Fach)

the only thing that stresses me is the actions of other people, thats why I try to avoid humans as much as I can.
