Family walk to the golf course and back.

Warm up out to Kettilstoun & back

Scottishathletics 15min Challenge. Ran a route from the top of the hill taking in an Avalon Gardens loop, Industrial Estate Loop, bus stop loop (did two), and back (finished only 5m from where I started). All relatively flat.
Paced it pretty well with mile splits of - 5.32, 5.38 & 5.39 (for last 0.68 miles). Was expecting around 2.5 miles so pleased with the distance, especially since not done a full flat 'speed' session since mid-February. Training been quite consistent though for about a month and hills give me harder training. Good to have something to target again. Conditions were good, overcast, cool and not much wind. Was lucky that saw virtually no-one.

Warm down to the industrial estate and back.

Joined in with Hanna and Tracey to do the Jessie Diggins core work out on youtube. Did the 45 second efforts (20 exercises). Just about killed me. Could do with making conditioning more regular.

Williamcraigs plus viewpoint.

Recce-ed some flat loops close to the house to think of where I can run 15 minutes quite hard for the SA challenge. Then headed up to Williamcraigs and back. Abandoned out & back to view point as they were spraying some very noxious substance on the golf course.

Williamcraigs double hill out & back at a brisker pace. Overcast fro a change. Quite tough.

Avalon Gardens, Braehead, Williamcraigs, viewpoint and back. Chilly East wind but still superb weather.

Williamcraigs out & back with additional out & back to golf course viewpoint. Broken record time but another blue sky, cool stunning morning. Some pockets of frost around.
