  • I love running the Taff trail

    I didn't really enjoy a lot of it tbh, just felt like endless flat cycle path running along behind endless estates that all looked very similar for the second half (Merthyr to Nantgawr). I prefer to be off road so the first half was more enjoyable despite the weather being far worse earlier on.
    Maybe there are normally great views across the valleys but we missed out those.
    Toward the end I was struggling to up the pace but when I left the trail and went down a short hill it was enough to get the legs turning over again and I maintained a better pace for the last mile or so to the finish. I think I'm just used to more undulating terrain.
