Trail running warm up/down 16:00 [2] 2.0 mi (8:00 / mi) +50m 7:25 / mi
Easy run round some of the paths from greendams. Not feeling too energetic
Hill running race 1:07:00 [5] 8.73 mi (7:40 / mi) +630m 6:16 / mi
Clachnaben hill race on new route. Pretty awful run, felt good for the first mile then the legs just collapsed on the uphills. Had to watch Joe and Chris pulling miles ahead of me while struggling all the way, was lucky to get away with 3rd place. The pace I ran/walked on the main clachnaben climb felt slower than on a long training run.
New route was quite good except the descent off clachnaben; think everyone fell at least once or twisted an ankle. I did both. The ground was soft with lots of rocks and heather. The new route to the finish was nice
