Up down and all around Meall a' Bhuachaille. Hadn't been up since the race, nice to check it's still there.
Cold and windy enough to count as weather, but fairly benign for the time of year. Only a little snow/ice on the trails towards the top. Pack a piece heavier than it'll be for LM42. Not too tired after yesterday. Legs feel like they've not done much grinding up longer climbs with a pack on lately, mostly because they haven't, but overall I felt fine. Nice to be back on hillier and more technical terrain. Last half hour was on flatter fireroads, working suitably hard to keep the pace reasonable.
6 dates, 3 gels, 300cal of Tailwind and 500ml of water.
