ハイキング

Today we went on a hike with a friend. Kamado shrine was very busy with beautiful cherry blossoms and lots of people enjoying them. 

We hiked up Mt. Homan stopping for break along the way because it was so warm. The views were hazy and not too clear although the weather was good. We stopped for lunch at the camp centre. We then split up and I hiked down using the Usagi route.

トレイルランニング

Busy May so I am trying to use any opportunity to get out. I cancelled my plan to go to Itoshima today because it was too cloudy and Itoshima looks best on a Sunny day. 

So instead I went on a trail run. I haven't used this full route for a while so it felt fresh and well as familiar. However i forgot how wild the other side of Kiyama can be. As I was running down listening to rock music I came centimetres from stepping on a large snake! Luckily it wasn't a Mamushi but instead a tiger keelback, Rhabdophis tigrinus. Although it is venomous I could still have tried to bite me or more likely sprayed me with a Toxin which is its first line of defence and it did make me scream. The rest of the run was pleasant with no more drama. 

Hopefully I can get out more before rainy season! 
 

天拝山（てんぱいざん）は、福岡県筑紫野市にある標高258mの山である。その名は、大宰府に流刑された菅原道真が自らの無実を訴えるべく幾度も登頂し天を拝したという伝記に由来する。古名は天判山（てんぱんざん）。
