Stretching with R via Zoom.

356 Trig look anticlockwise with Alice at reasonable pace with just a few drops of rain at the top and returning via a track across the field beyond the bunker I'd not been on before.

Strength and Conditioning with R via Zoom.

Strathblane to top of Dumgoyne and back with R, E and A on a surprisingly nice afternoon after a damp morning. Very steep up and down, and very windy at the top!

What has become a standard #lockdown loop from home to the top of Baljaffrey Woods and back via The Wedge (avoiding a large and non-socially-distancing group of youths partying in the middle of the woods) at reasonable pace in 46:27.

Slow jog to Milngavie ...

... laboured plod round the Milngavie AGM Score Course in 41:47 (compared to 36:10 in November 2019) ...

... slow plod back home.

Long family terrain run in the Kilpatricks with T, E and A on a slightly damp and misty Wednesday morning. Parked at the (newly reopened?) carpark in Old Kilpatrick then straight to the field to the top of The Slacks (diverting round a large herd of cattle) in 34:19, then to Duncolm in another 32:10 before returning via Greenside Reservoir and another diversion around the cattle before finishing straight down the field in another 44:45, for a total time of 1:51:13. Thomas did a bonus ascent of The Slacks too. Suddenly very tired on the drag up to Duncolm (where I haven't been for years) and the way back was a slog. Tired and thirsty afterwards, but an excellent work out.

Rest day.

Brisk cycle to to Mugdock Visitors' Centre via the Khyber Pass and back via Milngavie to clear my head and stretch my legs after a long day staring at my computer screen. Managed to set off the speed trap (28 mph again!). (Must have picked up a puncture as my back tyre was flat the next day, necessitating socially-distanced a trip to the bike shop.)
