With k.
Grim. Seriously grim.
Wouldn't have gone out if it hadn't been pre-arranged that we'd head out about 8.
First half wasn't actually that bad ..chatting away out through the woods and Brathens road. Once we'd launched into our second diversion through waterlogged fields to avoid the lakes covering the roads and it was against a cold wind it became a lot less fun. Then back through Glen O'Dee was slipping and sliding through the mud.
Good to get back for a hot shower and the fire.
Note: slight right hamstring soreness from yesterday.

With k before Detox

Come hill and high water....certainly both. Chucking it down again, all night and all morning. Obviously very wet but the farm track at 7k was better than when its been snowy and icy.

Kept within about 50m of TR and DH up the hill and k came past half way up at about 1k. Kept all three of them in sight through the downhill and flat although DH and k were stretching away. Pretty much caught up TR at the foot of the farm track and stayed with him until the last 50m when I had nothing to respond with. All good fun, good race, although about 15s down on 2015. Good turnout too considering.
57th/?400
6th V50..still think there should be a V55!
k: 42.49..cuffed twice in a week.:-)

Usual including to and fro after inspecting accumulated Dee debris.

Feel a rest would be beneficial so cancelled dnc at Glen Tanar is good enough for me.

(Not sure when a maroc dnc was last cancelled..not in my living memory anyway..not that that says much. Snow doesn't usually stop them but way too much water about today to get anywhere near Glen Tanar either way).

To foot of Corsee Hill

Slaughtered.

Back past golf club; Arbeadie Terrace and Viewmount.

Rarely do Goauch from home. With k and good chat all the way round. Slipping and sliding in places particularly up the steep single track on to Goauch and then in the fast fading light down the back of Scolty. Needed to go pretty carefuly.
Ran off a bit of excess I hope.
