Skyline from the flat. One of those runs you need to do if you're training for an ultra! Company from Coombs (Haymarket to Allermuir) Poo Boy (Morningside to Castlelaw) and Tessa (Swanston to Flotterstone) made the start easier. Ran out of water (1L) after the Kips and didn't fancy any of the stream water, particularly after finding a dead lamb in the bog halfway up Bell's. Managed to get three cereal bars down though.
Managed to run every step of the climbs, probably around 3:10-15 pace for the Skyline. The tarmac pounding back down into town wasn't much fun but there were no specific pains.
Longest ever training run!
