Cycle - late start (nearly 6pm), but busy all day. Home, Deeside Way to road, up to high point above Lumphanan, diagonal Queens view, Tarland , Dinnet, Aboyne, home - stuck on roads and mostly drivers gave me plenty of space - only one fairly close and one motorbike who went past at about 90...
Pushed hard all way from Lumphanan cross roads, hanging on from Aboyne but pleased with effort.

C • motorbikes 1

Surveying 2.5 hours.

Plus some foam rolling on my left calf - hurts like hell so must be doing some good ;-)

3.5 hours surveying, hot and humid. Left calf not happy, need to do more rolling, massage and stretching.

3.5 hours surveying. Less tired.

12x1+1 along riverbank path and towards WHW. Left calf tightened on 6th but didn't get worse so kept going. Stretching and foam rolling needed methinks.

4.5 hours surveying. Legs tired at start & very hungry by end!

To village hall and back for committee meeting.

Wee run round Hill of Banchory

Foam rollers, good session.

SOL Uath Lochans, short brown. 7.7km 66 mins. Decent technically - one miss when there seems to be an extra hill not marked on map. Running hard (lots of tripping and falling). Left calf tightened up (upper outside part) between 16 & 17.
Pleased to be first.

Steady run to start then got off early so less than hoped for!
