Much needed run-out at Loch Vaa. Great to have a map back in one hand, although got so excited by that I forgot to use the compass in the other. Absolutely appalling nav so lots to work on.

Slightly making up the stats because the watch wasn't loving life.

Good spin along the coast and back

Midweek long run round Mortonhall up Hillend and Allermuir. Liking this route more and more despite the ringroad crossing.

Tried to take every second 3km a bit harder but turns out kms 9-12 are straight up the hill, so that was a bit grim.

Much better session this week
2*(5*500'[1']) [3'] @ 3:12-3:20s

Happy enough with that

20 grind, trying to make a route down to Porty beach but bottled the seat-beach sections in both directions. There might be something in this route but definitely not the way I did it, and anyway the beach is terrible once you get there. Too windy, impossible to even pretend to social distance, and a lethal combination of toddlers and uncontrolled dogs with equal parts spatial inawareness and ankle-biting affinity.

Not again for a while.
