Glenquey, road down to Castlehill reservoir, then back + an extra there and back along the reservoir.
legs tired, going very slowly - good route to do if wanting to go slowly because of all the gates etc and some sections being rough underfoot means it's hard to go fast anyway.

Gold practice Day 4 out to Dalwhinnie
On my own the whole time after cooking the group breakfast after poor overnight weather conditions meant they got very little sleep. Stormed along Loch Ericht at sub 10 min kms, which was fairly moving with exped rucksack and walking boots. Only 14k and 100m odd climb but all at my own pace. Very grateful that Dave went to meet the group for me.

Gold practice Day 3 - Benalder Cottage to 2k NE of Culra Lodge.
With the group for first 7k teaching compass bearings etc, then on my own for 10k, again with extra looking for a campsite. Really tired by the end. Only covered about 19k and 400m climb, but knackered by the time I finally decided on a campsite and went to meet the group.
