SOL 6, Fairy Knowe and Doon Hill, Short Brown (7.0 km, 315 m) in 83:28. Tough but fair courses in a physically tough forest. Butterfly loops in a new section of very lush and green forest, and two visits to a relatively more runnable hillside before and after the spectator control. No significant navigational errors. First M50, but several M45s went sub 70, and best JEC W20s went sub 65.

Spectating at the JEC Relays.

JEC M20 Sprint Course (2.8 km), Stirling University. Tricky start in the (dark) woods, a tricky long leg across the map (during which I visited the out of bounds nettles in my shorts), then easy navigation to the end. Thomas did 15:43 - including having to go back from download to punch the finish!

CLYDE Terrain Run: 356 Trig clockwise in the gloom on a damp evening in a break between showers with Dave R. Garmin said 58:32 for 7.86 km with 248 m climb. Wet underfoot after all the recent rain.

Working until late in the evening.

Brisk to Anniesland (15:38) then 2 x 2 miles in 15.24 and 16.03, then steady back to Garscube (15.37). Surprising hard work. Session approximately 70 minutes.

Did need much persuading to take a rest day.
