Cerys Matthews - Ar Lan Y Mor

And don't ask me what she sings as my Welsh is non-existent apart from the usual ARAF (Slow) and Bws (Bus)... as yes, Jenny and I hit Wales big time again today. Our trip to Brecknock (Brecon) was a wonderful journey thru the valleys which found us as the start of the Taff Trail at the local Theatr (Theatre). National Cycle Route 8 will provide 50 miles of fun for the Cardiff ULTRA route.

We did the first 15 miles or so on and off road passing over and running along many reservoirs and valleys along the way. The route is stunning and there is a seven mile uphill stretch from early on off road that will get everyone's heart rate going full tilt, we hope.

Our fasct finding journey continues in Merthyr Tydfil tomorrow and Cardiff itself...it's all go on getting this event up and running asap. Get your entries in as it's going to be ace... http://www.ultrarace.co.uk/

More tomorrow...
