Local trundle in hail that was coming and going. Short loop round Potties with a mix of road and forest track then back via Home Farm. Nice to get out at a leisurely pace.

DR April Cambus Canters ... virtual still.
Pleased with this. Best time since 2016, not that I did it at all between 2016 and 2020. 18.38 in June 2016. 25s better than the quickest of three attempts last year. Not sure why mind. Also not sure why Garmin measured it as 3.98 cos it’s 4.24 and always has been.
Hung back a wee bit on the initial hills so as not to set myself up for a long sufferfest. Felt comfortable ish out to halfway then, after the long downhill, it’s always a case of holding it together round the twists and turns and ups and downs of the last km. Encouraging.

Trail 10:00 [3]
shoes: Pegasus 35

Warm down with JM

ahr:157 max:170 shoes: Hoka Red

Local patch loops including riverside. Fancied treating my feet to road running shoe comfort. Not too muddy or greasy so turned out nicely.
Steady without pushing it. Felt good. Primroses, kite and roe.

Largely road loop from Barley B. Pretty chilly. Nice views though. Felt ok apart from sore bunions.

Trail / Terrain Run 7:03 [3] 0.93 km (7:35 / km) +28m 6:35 / km
ahr:142 max:156 shoes: Mudclaws bluebackred

Warm up across the field and down an iffy track.

Trail / Terrain Run 40:03 [3] 6.24 km (6:25 / km) +168m 5:40 / km
ahr:157 max:185 shoes: Mudclaws bluebackred

6 x 2.30/1.15 at BB near Huntly
Intended to use a track, which largely wasn’t one. Hence rides in the nearby forest came in handy. First rep somewhat dubious and interrupted but thenceforth full consistent effort. Variable terrain so distances inconsistent.
Felt strong.

Allowed out....first time staying away since November.

Castle grounds sprint relay and back through the woods. Two groups.
Great to be back. :-)

Note

Now committed to the Lairig Ghru race so some focused decent prep needed. 9 weeks away. Act together needed.

9 AM

Trail 2:00:35 [3] 20.09 km (6:00 / km) +516m 5:19 / km
ahr:148 max:170 shoes: Mudclaws bluebackred

Was looking for a long run, but quicker than the long hill runs of late, so a local bash with PM and DW fitted the bill...although it had more climb than I’d planned.
Lovely day. Sun but cool breeze.
Home Farm, Antilly, Toms Cairn, Craigmore. A bit of gorse bashing coming off TC, even having to resort to leaping the fence into the plantation for a stretch of avoidance.
Good pace for me...requiring some effort but not max. Nice that both P and D had had lengthy runs in the days before so content with spoiling me.
Doorstep run as good as anything today. Lot of people out east of the memorial. Almost no-one west.
Pleased to not feel particularly tired after. Not that quick I know but still a good sign.
