Little pootle out to Cambusbarron from work late on. Taking a bit easier after yesterday. Knee was randomly seizing up when I went back into the warmth at work after the run.

FVO Bannockburn night event.

Really good fun orienteering mass start. Went round with Ross McLennan for most of it, exchanging the lead a bit but I sat back a bit later on. Just edged the sprint. Knee feeling it a bit due to the mainly urban course. Pretty heavy snow for the first half making it very picturesque.

Swapped another slog up Dumyat for a bit more of an adventure up in the Ochils. All quite pleasent up to 400m high when I was swallowed up by cloud & fog and vis dropped to maybe 3/4 metres due to reflection off the headtorche. Felt like a proper nice little mini-MM in the dark once I'd got to the plateau, navigating by map and compass until I rejoined the track at the other side. Bit windy on the tops but nowt too bad.

Run in Ochils from Alva.

Felt really tired to begin with, a mix of yesterday's efforts and steep slopes. Plan was to ascend Ben Cleugh again from a different side. Was soon into the cloud from about 300m up and the forecast wind was really starting to bite. Vis was very low and I missed the turnoff for the track I wanted to take somehow. So with no map and not being able to see much more than 50m had to turn back as soon as the track ran out. Managed to get quite high still though.

Snow melting nicely today - good riddance!

Windy forecast on tops today so went Ochils rather than Munros.

Picked a very steep route up so it was mainly walking up, but still a tough workout. Beautiful blue skies and hazy views, but a persistent W wind (40-60mph forecast) made the tops a bit chilly. Completely frozen above about 600m, a nice winter wasteland.

SEDS night O @ Auchingarrich.

Another epic night o, was feeling really good in control until I lost concentration folding the map on the way #12 and then lost maybe more than 5 mins oops.
