Out through the woods and trees to the top of the "Bullevard" which has completley disappeared under a broom forest. Fought a way to the field and then picked up the track further down to cut across to the military road. Left along this to the Lumphanan road, round to DAP and back over through the woods. Squelchy under wheel but brightened up nicely over head. Good ride.
With J and E. Glen Muick from road corner by bridge out on a track through the forest, up to the N end and the fish ladder, then back down the valley bottom track. Low cloud, rain and squelchy on the tracks but a good ride.
Broad Cairn from Glen Muick. Up the zig-zag track and along the plateau then back by the diagonal path to the top if the loch. Fab day - cloud was clinging to the tops at the start but cleared fairly quickly. Not feeling bouncy but managed to run most of the hill very slowly. Helped back by a strong tail wind.
2 x sets of 5 x 1' + 1' with jog part way back and 3' jog back between sets. On hill above DAP. Felt good!

Snatched a last session at Glen T. Brisk 2 bridges struggling to keep up with the pace maker. Felt light headed before half way and wasn't sure I'd make it back. Nice evening though - very mild.
