| Run with Beccy from Dunblane - round the golf course and up through the woods on a lovely uphill path that I've not been on before. Good steady pace. |

| Run round Stirling Uni with Peggy on her first run for a while so took it very steadily, which meant plenty of breath available for chatting all the way around... |

| Blood tests all normal, in fact blood and iron counts in upper end of range, excellent. So, it means that I was basically running on empty for my evening runs (temporary state of hypoglycemia I guess) - half starved of energy from food. Very simple to rectify: eat more before running in the evening like carbs about two hours before! I would be interested to know what others are eating and what works for you? |

| Had some blood extracted and had a chat with the Doctor - turns out he's a hill runner and able to give plenty of good advice. Now taking 600mg of iron tablets per day... dinner was a lovely steak and lots of green veg. |

| Crieff 10K. Lovely scenic course, mostly on track and hilly so wasn't expecting to get near my vdot predicted time of 53.33mins. I was happy with my time considering I've been feeling a bit off colour lately. Still, I took 7 minutes off my Lanzarote 10K time from about ten years ago. |
