Mountain Bike 2:45:00 [3] 37.0 km (4:28 / km)
Spurred on by yesterdays ride I felt up to this challenge! But first I had to hike 4k with Hannah in the backpack round the white course with Matthew - well impressed with his endurance cos it was a long way incl to start & finish! But beautiful, sunny forest!
Little was I to know that we'd already seen the best part of the day...
From Phorp - onto the Dava Way and a ride off-road all the way back to Grantown. Absolutely fab route with no trouble riding any of it apart from being into a strong-to-gusting South Westerly all the way which eventually turned into sleety gusting and then downpour! Chilblained hands and feet by the end and it was one of the toughest endurance sessions I've done for a while (because I'm so crap on a bike!). Glad to have done it. Calfs fine, ITB's a bit grumbly but holding out.

FVO Night O Stirling Uni & Hermitage.
Late arriving, no warm up, struggling to get into my stride early on. Caught Daniel Stansfield and we were just about to head onto the hill for the last big loop when, Ooh, what's that, ouch, that hurts!
Twang! Left calf.
Dang! There goes the Scottish Sprints & Nights and two lovely events in Speyside this weekend!

Kinnoull Hill Run.
Had hoped to do a fartlek or interval session up it but clearly being waken 4 times by Hannah between 4am and 6am doesn't help your training.
Both big toes sore from something I did last night and right calf and plantar fascia grumbly.
Having said that - it was a pleasant dry, chilly winter's day (Untypical) and my time to the top was nae bad.
