Staying at Kinlochewe for New Year, missed the walk up Slioch on 29th but great walk round the Coire Lair horseshoe today, good views but not as much snow as would have liked. Went along Beinn Liath Mhor ridge first and then up Sgorr Ruadh. The others came back over Fuar Tholl but I headed back from the col down to the river with Pat. Not much difference in time - we were back at the car 10 mins before the others - pretty dark by 5pm!

Intervals at Stirling Uni with Brad. Did two sets of 6x400m starting every two mins, four mins between sets.

Just about held it together on the first set but more consistent on the second set - definitely helped having Brad there to make me work!

Times were
(first set) 79.3, 82.8, 83.4, 84.7, 85.1, 82.2
(second set) 79.3, 82.1, 82.4, 82.5, 83.1, 79.2
average 82.2

C • ah - glad I missed your call! 3

Ran out to Coombe Abbey and did a lap of the country park, then ran back. Two min hiatus on the way home while I looked for where I had left my jacket in the woods - knew I had put it under the 'Private Keep Out' sign but it turned out there were four of them along the track!

Arrived at parents for Xmas - headed out to Dyer's Lane and did reps of 6 times 1km. Slightly uphill for first, dowbnhill for second, and so on. Times were 3:50, 3:22, 3:52, 3:23, 3:49, 3:24.

Fely okay given that it was 4.30pm and I had eaten two bits of toast all day. Brooks trainers are falling apart though - urgent need for a new pair in the sales!
