BOC relays with Paul and Alan in the M40 class. 5.2 km. Enjoyed the race on first leg. Pretty clean, bar one slight overshoot, but a couple of mins off the pace on running speed.

BOC, Cannock Chase. M40L, 11.2 km. Didn't have a good run. Started well, but a bit ragged at 6 and 7 and throughout the middle part of the course. There was a lot of bland running which made it hard to wake up when needed. Confused by the map in several places and then a big mistake in the crazy quarry bit to top it all. And struggling for speed too!

ECKO spring series at Coille Nathais - blue, 6.5 km, 57:16. Nice course, with the best bits of the woods very like Creag Mhic. Trying to take it easy, with BOC at the weekend, but it was still an hour of pretty physical running. Technically a little fuzzy in places. A good leg stretch!

Control collection.

Hike/run up Suilven. Hiked in with M, then pushed pretty hard on the way up and ran the 6 miles back out to Lochinver. A really impressive mountain. Just about got a view from the top through the base of the cloud.
