Another big day out: road to Clydebank, canal to Bowling, cycle path to Dumbarton. Got fed up with failng to spot signs so took the B-road up to Balloch then cut across the N Kilpatricks on Not The John Muir Way (including snack break admiring the view to Loch Lomond and beyond). Down past Finnich Glen, along through Strathblane and Lennoxtown, then right at Milton of Campsie to Kirkintilloch, returning home along the canal and through Ruchill.

Quite impressed with myself as it was at the top end of what I'd set out to do (having a decent tailwind for the middle section definitely helped). Might have a rest day tomorrow though.

Testing out new trainers (first in a couple of years!) around Ruchill Park. Nice to feel a bit of stability and support - hopefully they can keep my achilles in vaguely working order.

Variation on the usual Drumchapel loop with much of the homeward leg done along the canal.

Looping around N Glasgow on roads and canal path, trying (eventually unsuccessfully) to avoid the rain showers.

Post-work spin around the park. Achilles a bit grumbly, especially given the hard dry ground.
