Brisk cycle from Bearsden to Milngavie to Torrence to Lennoxtown to Strathblane to Mugdock to Milngavie and back to Bearsden on a sunny evening in 92:02. Some poor road conditions in a few places - maybe these will be fixed for the European Road Race Champs, which uses some of the same road in August?

Slow plod from the Railway Bridge back down the West Highland Way to Clobber Road in 85:40 and then home (+20:38) in 106:17 on a sunny early Sunday evening. Always a struggle. Knees not very happy. Tired afterwards.

Steady effort round the notoriously steep Drumchapel parkrun #95 in 25:57 working quite hard to stay ahead of a runner in my peripheral vision behind (I did).

Gentle warm up before the parkrun.

Rest day after a tough week - hopefully I'll see the benefit it due course!

CLYDE Terrain Run, Dunellan and Jaw Reservoir (clockwise) on a damp and misty evening with Dave in 53:39. A surprising (and disappointing) amount of rubbish on the hill: I returned with 7 plastic bottles, 2 cans and a size 34C bra (it must have been a hell of a party!).

FVO Evening Event, Dumyat, Green Course (5.2 km, lots of climb) in 57:46. Excellent workout on an area with plenty of climb with some tricky navigational challenges looking for crags on steep slopes. Hesitant climbing up to 3 and a miss at 9, but otherwise a pretty steady on a gloriously sunny evening.

Tough Garscube Interval Session (78:15). Warm up to Annesland (15.47), 1 x 2 miles (15:50), 4 x 400 m (starting with a very slow 2:03 and finishing with a more respectable 1:41), 1 x 1 mile (7.50), then warm down back to Garscube (16:09).
