shoes: Mudclaw 300 b/r
Many moons since I've done this and then on the old course
Well puggled. A real mudbath.
Stuck on Ks heels until the Mount Shade stile and was probably 30s behind at the top but got blown away on the downhill. Picked up a bit on the Clachnaben climb but she had long gone by the time I was through the snow at the top. Mud and more mud on the way back through the heather.
Twinges of hamstring cramp over the undulations through the forest at the end.
Happy enough with it.
Nice to have lots of locals obviously running but great to have the visitors adding ng the interest to what was a Scottish Champs race this year.
2nd and last of Ballogie runners...6 mins down
3rd and last of family...about 29 mins down...what?!
