Sunrise on the Môle ridge
Leaving at night, running above the clouds
Headlamp start at 4:30 am to catch the sunrise on the ridge. 24 km of trail, a sea of clouds and a well-earned coffee on the way back.

That morning the valley sat under a sea of clouds. I ran the whole ridge above the cotton, alone, with only the sound of footsteps. Back down at 9, at the café by 9:30. The best way to start a Saturday.
