| Beau the ultra runner |
Hi All Meet Beau. Beau is a Springer Spaniel but this
Springer has recently confessed to harbouring an ambition to run across the
Brecon Beacons. He said that when he runs up there amongst the rounded moor
like summits, with his ears flapping and the crunch of the early morning frost
under his feet, watching the south Walian sun as it arks over head mapping out
his journey west, knowing he is following in the footsteps of countless spaniels,
weekend walkers not to mention special forces personnel, he feels free, he
feels its what he was born to do…. Yes he is rather articulate for a spaniel,
however he is immensely cockeyed!
So it has come to pass that beau will get his wish and
traverse the Brecon beacons this year. His preparation has begun already, with regular
training runs. The plan is to do the journey in ten to thirteen mile legs first
and then this summer to link them in a single weekend. Beau will not be alone
on his adventure he has enlisted the services of Welsh Adventures staff Tony
Rees (me) and Adam Roberts (not me) as his support crew. We will be keeping you
up dated on his progress in the coming months here on the blog and on the Welsh
Adventures face book page so keep an eye out for the photos and videos to come.
