It was Mia's second birthday yesterday so a trip to Cocking for a walk along the South Downs. Mia met a sheep.

Techtember and all the new toys are coming out and my favourite so far is the new DJI Neo autonomous drone which requires no controller or phone to fly and as you can see perfect to follow the girls on their adventures.

This was the route we were going to run a few weeks ago before I fell at full speed and put a hole in my elbow. Apparently there is a field of sunflowers but we didn't see it.

Slight injury so no running this weekend so we went for a quick walk around Tilford and as there is zero mobile reception it was the perfect place to test the new Starlink Mini. Spoiler it works, not super fast but enough so you could have a cake and a coffee with internet.

Ash Ranges is open for a few weeks in the summer so we thought we'd take advantage and walk a few of our favourite routes during the week.

Stole this route from Slow Jen who stole it from Jo who stole it from Sam and wow what a route. Lovely woodland for the first half although glad I had the waterproof shoes on and then lovely open views along the North Downs Way. Mia chased a few pheasant and rabbits and many many squirrels but was well behaved around the roads and is such a good girl.

Lovely walk around Shere and all the flowers were out it was spectacular.

Just a short one to show you how fast Mia is (faster than Usain Bolt who tops out at 27mph) and how good her recall is on the whistle.

Today (8th May) was the first anniversary of the death of Mara so we decided to adventure over the border to The Black Mountains in Wales to make some memories. Perfect day for a hike and with 700m of elevation the legs felt it. Miss you Mara every day ♥️

Thought after yesterdays race we would just plod round this one but Mia having none of it. 3rd male and 6th overall despite being in the "Senior Veteran" category 😂 just short of 10k and average pace was 5:07min/km so super happy and Mia proving once again how amazing she is.

The postponed race from March. The "New Forest" 15k was a bit of an ask, not sure it was actually in the New Forest and most of the course was farmland and roads but Mia was on fire and we went out way too fast. Average pace was 5:19 which was good enough for 4th place but we'd have won the 10k race.

There was a new firmware update for the Insta360 Ace Pro so I can use it directly with the DJI Mic 2 and as the sun was out thought we would test it out in the sun and wind over at Swinley Forest and Barossa.

It was very warm today but windy. A nice walk around the ranges and Mia once again on fire. She covered 18km while we did 11km

We do love a Hankley Common walk especially when the place is quiet as the smells and noises are amazing for Mia. We walked 11km and Mia did 18km today so she was on fire then home to see the new lemon tree and battle the fat squirrel.
