Training Log Archive: Big Jon

British relays, Torphantrick. M40 3rd leg. Early on felt good then tried to think “strong” then just tried to survive:-)
Legs empty rather than sore but need some recovery this week before Scottish.

Poor belated attempt at warm-up when in changeover pen.

At red start all day, feeling pretty drained especially after 3 trips carrying kit up hill.
Great day for it - all must have been impressed by forest and weather:-)

Travel home, back mid afternoon, not feeling like any exercise ;-)

Run across Scotland, day 5.
Done it - scorching sun and heat in second part, glad of lots of sun-cream. best weather I can remember for the whole trip.
Plus all 11 runners finished!

C • NIce one! 2

Run across Scotland, day 4, Glen africa to Morvich. The big one, great day, sun, light wind and stunning scenery, what more to ask for?
No deer but still plenty of snow patches on higher slopes.

Run across Scotland, day 3. Lovely day, cool, no rain and plenty of snow still on the hills. Legs fine just a wee bit achey in lower hamstrings.

Run across Scotland, Day 2 (for the pedants). Drumnadrochit to Tomich, 17miles - or 18 - depending on whose GPS you choose :-) Nice day, some cloud but plenty of sun - the Aussie in the group got sunburn
