Short trot to Buckingham Terrace before a long day of traveling - including a 5 hour drive in a hire car with NO STEREO! It also shouldn't have been a five hour drive but it turns out not all roads lead to Rome. especially the motorway out of Rome airport...

The Mighty Deerstalker - a twilight adventure "10km" cross country/hill race for the masses. 2500 of them. Mostly all in the m/w21 bracket. Paying £40 a pop. How can we tap into this market? There must be a way.
I won. At a canter. It was really good fun though!

Over to the Seat via Buccleuch Pend, Place, Place Lane, Street & Terrace. Randomly bumped into hill running uber-talent Robbie Simpson finishing an hour and a half in the park with a huge grin on his face "This place is amazing, it's like a play park for hill running!" which very much set the tone for the rest of my run, exploring, dropping down steep slopes and scrambling up steeper ones: playing at hill running. Legs reasonably dead after last nights late night steady run so nothing too strenuous. Just fun.
