My first checkpoint today was the infamous La Patisserie in Llandovery. A flat white, crodot and cookie. Ready to go!
With all of this energy to burn, I ran on up Pen y Fan and along to Fan Y Big. The landscape was inspiring, the weather was fine and I had great views for miles and not a drop of rain. Huzzah!
I dropped back to camp without getting lost on any silly back lanes for a change, then finished the day with some further painting from the day's adventures.


Tomorrow Cardiff beckons and then home, running water, family and sleep.
I'll be displaying all of my Dragon's Back Race paintings at the finish so if you're around, come and have a look and a chat.
Elaine.
