Guiding for RTH. From Aboyne Bridge up the Fungle, R at the Guard, L at the big pine, all the way above osprey nest (no one at home) and down by diagonal track through the trees to finish at Braeloine. Really nice run. Easy pace again but steadier today.
Left E at home having a lie in and got back to find freshly baked ginger biscuits :-)

Guiding for RTH. From Keiloch cp, bbq hut, green bridge, Carn t'Sagairt Mor path as far as the shelter at end of landie track (too wild and exposed to go any higher), back down, then high track with detour to Prince's Stone (cp35), joined Ripe Hill track, over the Gelder, then right and over to Loch Muick cp. Very easy paced with a lot of stopping (out for 5:40 total). Walked most of last 10km with guest who was having a bad day. Only a few nasty squalls with a fair bit of sun in-between, but wind too fierce to take in any higher ground.
Felt good for the whole run. Useful to learn that I can keep going for a long time if the pace is easier than my usual. Saw an adder just by the Gelder bridge.

Another day off - not really needed but out all day and long w/e coming up.

With J from Cambus car park. Headed out towards Crannach to retrace my steps from a couple of weeks ago when I dropped my camera case. Found it, then returned into Cambus, up the Canters hill and onto Cnoc Dubh (cp70). Back through terrain off the SW side of the hill until we hit the big track again.
Feeling a bit wappit before we set off, but fine once we got into it.

Loch Kinord intervals. 8 x 3'+1'. Feeling tired. Slept poorly last night and some frustrations to run off. So, somewhat surprised to find myself passing previous marker points on this session. Encouraging.

To start of intervals and back at end

Round the old 7-miler at GT with SR, DH and E on the bike. Pace was somewhat kinder than usual but still felt like we were moving quite fast - definitely better effort than I'd have done on my own. Got going much better than I expected after lunchtime intervals. Eventually got dropped on the return but E kept waiting for me which was appreciated.
Good days training. Looking forward to an easy day tomorrow.

Home, Craiglash, Glassel, back rd from Campfield, T'phins golf club, P'murchie and DW home. Got a bad stitch climbing the hill to P'murchie. Otherwise good.

After school club. Got dragged into a couple of head to heads with E. I won.
