Trail / Terrain Run race (Braemar Games Hill Race) 36:05 [5] 5.0 km (7:13 / km) +399m 5:10 / km
shoes: Mudclaw 300 b/r
Many many years since I did this one.
Glad I did a recce of the lower slopes with Miles beforehand. Advice from StephP when we met her helped too. Probably saved a good bit.
Usual painful uphill but felt in reasonable shape. Overtaken by Miles a fair bit before the cairn but pleased that AnwenD and JennyR were probably only 30s-40s ahead at the top. Good line down roughly maintaining the distance to A & J and leaving Miles by a good bit.
Pleased but it would have been nice to dip under 36. Impressive runs by KrisJ and PeterH in 1st and 2nd since they said they didn't have much idea of the the route down.

Steady up to Craigmore trig, north off the top through some niceish bits of woodland then back through the bracken to Torqu. At least the bracken is dying down a wee back on the route across to the fence crossing.
Nice.
Nice.

Out to Birse church and back pretty much the same way. Lovely day if very windy. Deceptive climb from Finzean up to the church. Some of last nights hills still in the legs.

Docks.
Bilberries in Glen Dye. Huge numbers. Seems like cheating to scoop them up in a picker. 4 litre tub in less than 20 minutes.

Edinburgh festival wanderings all weekend. Not restful but good fun. Didn't feel to need a run.
