Good solid run from Strathearn team. 44 second PB for me and Will M on 2nd leg, which had been extended with an additional check point to stop teams cutting the corner and jumping a dry stone wall (who would do that!).
10 seconds up on last year at the top of West Lomond. Difference this year was Will decided to put the boot in on the last third as we competed with a couple of other teams, and I was hanging in just. Net gain of 1 place for the leg. Pretty pleasing as there were lots of teams closing down on us up West Lomond.
Team 12th 3:06:32 - Leg 1 Wattie 12th, Leg 2 (9th for leg) - 10th position 65:48, Leg 3 Andy Greaves / Colin - (15th for leg), 13th overall, Phil (20th for leg) 12th.

Edinburgh Urban - last minute decision to enter on day.
Major rush to get over to Edinburgh for this. Got out of the car and wished I'd had a little jog warm down after Devils. Felt terrible on the Vets course to start with but got into it until the king of the mountain legs, towing up the hills after the mornings race. The tourists in the old town pretty dopey today and lots of them making it slow in places.
Cocked up the levels behind the Sherriton (again) and lost a couple of minutes. Just about kept running to the end about 6 minutes down overall.
Really enjoyed it despite my body breaking down.
