Running long 3:19:00 [5] 27.0 mi (7:22 / mi)
LAIRIG GHRU RACE 1st
My day out treat on tour with Mum and Dad and james on Deeside.
Some ultrarunner went of at crazy pace, so let him go and settled into a group that gradually broke up by Derry Lodge with only Paul Sheard up ahead. Gradually Paul moved out of sight on the climb. Finally reached the top and there sitting in the rocks was our ultrarunning pal. Gave him a couple of jellybabies, and trundled on, down the rooty descent through Rothiemurchus, feeling remarkably comfortable with nobody in sight but people cheering. The road was miserable as ever, and on arrival in Aviemore it transpired that Paul had gone walkabout and I was first back.
No cheering the unexpected win from M&D, there were just too many ice cream opportunities on the way round, and they rocked up quarter of an hour later.
