Stag event on new map at Grandtully. Raining cats and dogs and hungover from night out. Good head clearer. Climbing solidly for the first 5 controls (more power walking practise) then a fun Dave Prentice style green section before some pleasant but boggy white stuff then some random bingo controls (which I failed on) at the end.
Not a bad area.

Double Dumyat from the shoulder. Up the quad track then down towards the covered reservoir at Menstrie along track towards the reservoir then up the side of Dumyat to practice hands and knees power walking.
Just avoided the most incredible hail storm.

Had hoped to do a double Dumyat today but Hannah sick so no opportunity to get away. Managed to squeeze a one-er in before Kingsman Golden Circle (Fab!) outing with Poosticks.
Up and down the grassy quad route. Had the hill all to myself.

Recovering and stretching.

At HQ for the day to meet with ESRI. Managed to get in my old haunt run from an early lunch start. Love this run - pretty darned tough. Worked well and managed to bound the steps. Nice and mild again.

Home from a Communication Meeting in Edinburgh early so no excuse not to run. Need some hills so went to the Gathering Stane. Muddy as.
But exceedingly mild - 18.5 !!!
AS to be expected I had no energy and was very non-bouncy.
