Decided against going for a run tonight and opted instead for a night walk up Snaefell. This was Izzy’s first big off-road walk and I wasn’t sure she’d make it but she showed me up, even on the steeper last section. It was pretty nippy up on top. I tried to get a couple long exposure shots with the camera on the summit but with the dog running round didn’t have the chance to sit and play with this for long.
After a flask of coffee and a couple of snaps we headed on down and Izzy showed herself as a true downhiller. I had fully expected to carry her down but she was loving it. It was a bit icy in places with some of the puddles have a thin layer of ice and the rocks’ frosty surfaces glistening in the headlight.
The walk has taken its toll on Izzy now though and she’s out for the count. Hopefully a quieter day for Don with the little monster tomorrow!
