still icy, so Castle Road and down, W side of Glen and down, round school, up Tarmangie Drive kept going up the top road to the top and back.

logging this since it must be a new PB for getting from our house to the Prep school doors. (late for Parents' Evening)
a car coming out of Castle Road even waited for me to pass then drove slowly behind me - it could tell I was in a rush!
heard lots of sirens and could smell a bit of smoke while walking girls down to school. ran up Castle Road, until it became clear there was a big fire not too far from school. ran back down and there was a major house fire in Strachan Crescent. 3 fire engines and lots of ambulances. apparently house was empty though, so no-one hurt. then back up Castle Road, down hillfoot hill
5 * bottom of Strachan Crescent (start of pavement next to road junction) to corner of tall fence at end of back road.
4'15, '12, ?, '11, 15. a dog ran up to me just at the end of the third one and I missed the time, but it was going to be nearer 10 than 15
still trying to avoid ice.
5 climbs up Castle road from middle carpark to cattle grid.
4'03, 3'49, '47, '48, '49.
first one was slower because I waited for 2 foxes to jog across the road in front of me, then I peered into the glen to see if I could see them.
Not really trying at intensity 5 - couldn't motivate myself to hurt myself enough, and too busy looking out for foxes (2) and red squirrels (1)
