I’ve not long got back from a lovely early morning run. The run itself wasn’t anything spectacular – I’m still suffering with a chesty cough and as it was a cold frosty morning I decided to take it easy and stuck to a gentle jog all the way around my 6.5 mile loop, but it was an amazing morning.<\/p>\n

I don’t know if it was the fact that the skies had cleared after what seems like months under a thick veil of grey drizzly cloud – Being able to actually see the scenery was a shock to the system and with the early morning sun rising seeing some colour in the landscape was a pleasant surprise. Or, it could have been the endorphins from the exercise as they seem to make everything feel and look better. Whatever it was, the sights and sounds of early morning Wales were putting on quite a display.<\/p>\n

There was a slither of crescent moon in the clear blue morning sky which added to the drama, but best of all\u00a0was the mist. The cold temperatures had created an atmospheric temperature inversion where cold air had sunk to the bottoms of the valleys. The saturated ground and moist air had then condensed to form a thick white mist. This mist spread out, trapped under the temperature inversion to give it a flattened top. It was only a few metres off the ground though and above that the air was as clear as could be.<\/p>\n

I was running in the hills behind Dolybont so had a stunning view of the mist trapped by the temperature inversion all over Borth Bog and up into the Dyfi Valley. The whole landscape took on a new appearance and a new coastline had developed with mist forming new promontories from the hills and smaller,\u00a0isolated\u00a0hills becoming islands in the mist. Hopefully this isn’t a sign of things to come – sea level rises could well mean that this will be the coastline of the future in this part of Wales!<\/p>\n

I didn’t have my camera with me as I\u00a0don’t take it on runs so you’ll have to imagine it for yourself, but yet again my early morning run not only improved my fitness and got me up and going for the day but also provided an opportunity to see this part of Wales at its best.<\/p>\n

Here’s my route from this morning in the hills behind Dolybont – As I looked out across towards the estuary, the little hills on Borth Bog were islands in the mist.<\/p>\n
