Valpolicella

Having been making slides since 5 am, my patience with the nearby demolition work ran out shortly after 10 am, so I decided to trade the sound of pneumatic jack hammers for some forest silence in Skatås. 

However, once there, I just could not stop running in the crisp autumn sunshine. Feeling a bit guilty, I ended up running the full 18k trail for the first time, accumulating 434 meters of elevation gain on some fairly wet and technical trails.

Reminding me of long-gone train journeys and Italian restaurant cars that are no more, I decided to keep things simple for dinner with some Valpolicella Ripasso and plenty of Parmigiano Reggiano.
