Training Log: Big Jon

Glen Ey with S, killing time while E ran with a mate (plus picking up a forgotten bike wheel at the car park!) Legs feeling pretty tired, glad of shorter easier run.

Run from wee camper van spot north of Ullapool, down to coast and old fort on promontory then back along some estate tracks. Pleasant run and back just before rain started.

Wander round rocky hill to north of Achmelvich beach, lovely views and amazing gale-force wind!

Glen Feshie hills - Mullach Clach a'Bhlair in hie cloud then north towards Sgur Gaoith but gave up short of it as visibility so poor. Monster vehicle track all way to within 300m of summit and then along towards Carn Ban Mor - could drive a car up to 1000m very easily!
Great descent - especially coming out of the cloud to suddenly see bright colours across Glen Feshie and Strathspey.
Moving for approx 4-20

Round Loch Morlich with S & E, middle option (rather than short on loch side for longer out to hill above forest).

Loch Morlich, felt OK temperature-wise.

walk up Lochnagar via black spout and back to Loch for a wee swim. Out for 5 hours total, probably 4-30 moving time.

Swim in Lochnagar. A bit parky but i for short enough time to avoid shakes after, though feet and chin very cold.
