Note
(rest day)

Tried to get up early again to go for a pre-decamp jog. Too much weighed down by previous night's curry, so didn't. Had to restrict exercise to throwing the motorbike at high speed around every bend I could find from Dingwall to Dunblane, via the Moray Coast, Speyside, Deeside and Fife. There were lots. :-)

A wee early morning jog around Dingwall from the campsite, before jetting off for the day's motorcycle tour of the far NW. felt pretty dreadful, but glad to get out at all.

Hooray! Doc D says the bursa is all but gone, so I should be able to train with impunity, at last. The pain is probably just because the heel is generally trashed... it'll get a bit better but I'm just going to have to put up with it. As long as it's not causing any further damage that's fine by me! It'll be a wee while yet before the arthritis kicks in...

Ah, Abbey Craig... JK 2012 sprint area. What a great idea, Mr X.

Tonight's 3km course was certainly sprint length, but 4 minute kms aren't really an option at AC! Footwear choice of trail shoes was perhaps a tad incorrect; wet bluebells = several near-AOT comedy tumbles. I'd have been better off strapping a skateboard to my a**e. Hmm, skateboard-O, now then...

Jolly fun. And the most amazing thing, I saw the moon in the car park afterwards. It was gone in a flash, but quite remarkable...

A wee joggie aroond the uni post-O to justify my fabulously calorific pizza in Corrieri's. MMMmmmmm yum yum yum whoops so much for the diet

Outrageously late this morning, so I thought that I might as well be even later and take a longer route to enjoy the glorious sunshine. Up from Linlithgow, over the back road to Bathgate (fantastic view coming off the hill) then along bumpy old Rte 73. A brilliant morning to be on a bike, shame I had to stop and go to work.

HR pretty low - as usual, my cardiovascular system is regaining fitness much faster than my legs. Either that or I wasn't trying hard enough :-)

The direct route home; no shilly-shallying, B was cooking a roast chicken mmmm. I was feeling fairly frisky and pushed along pretty well. Only a mild breeze; wonderful cycling.

Lovely afternoon... so I took a rather long and devious route to pick up Jamie from nursery. Up through the wood and clockwise around the Stane circular. Lots of folks up at the Stane, with lanterns and things, either some Clan Gathering or the caravans are about to move in.

Trundling slowly to start with, picked up after I got to the top and started moving quite well.
