Mark and I had been talking about doing a meetup for months and it was great to finally do this. I'd intended to be more 'on camera' but I felt the anxiety rise as we set off and instead, I decided to try and highlight the wind.
I'm in awe of the forces of nature. I have lots of respect for water. I am fascinated by gravity - perhaps the greatest force of energy in the known universe.

As I said at the end; this was my second attempt at following this route in the Black Mountains (Black Hill, Hay Bluff, Offa's Dyke, Olchon Valley). If you haven't seen my first video from December 2016, please follow the link below:
