LAMM Day 1 with c.
Started from west end of Loch Glascarnoch SE of Ullapool. Fabulous weather. Views so good.
Early start so soon head of the pack and a lot of fun with no-one in front until TG and DG caught us. Stayed with them for a short time and then left them to it!. Lots of deer about and a baby adder.
First half ok apart from being too high at one and losing a bit on a couple of other route choices but lack of time in the hills and long runs took its toll in the second half and we died somewhat.
The toil up Seana Bhraigh was painful and the remaining 5 km down to the midway camp nearly as bad. Started raining as soon as we got there and continued from 1300 through all evening. Impeccable timing.
