This year, there were no exciting adventurous sporting activities which was probably a good thing as I was still suffering with a lingering lurgy. So, after a chilled morning I opened my birthday presents\u00a0over breakfast. There was a new heart rate monitor to replace mine which had stopped working a while back, a new rucksack for running, a new running jacket, a mug for cups of tea, some Muc Off and a craft beer subscription from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flavourly.com\/ALANTW383\">flavourly<\/a>. I should have fun trying that little lot out in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n<p>We then headed up to a misty murky Nant yr Arian for a little stroll. It was pretty quiet up here today. We barely saw anyone else, just the occasional mountain biker as\u00a0we approached the Visitor Centre. The Skills Park that they are building is coming on nicely though. I can&#8217;t wait to try it out next year when it&#8217;s finished.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat:
