Whew! Brown Course at Pressmennan and Lothian Edge. Rolled up expecting a nice Sunday morning stroll only to be goaded into the Brown by Jon. Long, not many controls, loads and loads of climb! Was sluggish at the beginning but eased in and ran quite well. Planning ahead and running straight to all controls except one, but was very visible in most places when the cloud was up! Was dead chuffed to spike number 12 which was a tricky tiny little re entrant. Bad plan for popping into the forest to number 8. Beast of a course but good fun!
