Bike - Mountain 1:44:00 intensity: (44:00 @1) + (40:00 @2) + (20:00 @3) 21.0 km (4:57 / km) +248m 4:41 / km

'Family' cycle round Dalbeattie with Lard, Skyhigh and Little Lard in a trailer (who is quite heavy when you're the one doing the towing!). Lovely day and very enjoyable, though it will be some time yet before my posterior agrees to more cycling. Kept forgetting to restart my watch after the multitude of stops to settle the wee man who wasn't enjoying the bumpy roads, also did a wee extra loop on the mtb trails at the end - my skills are very rusty (first bit of mtb since my accident).

SOL 2, Dalbeattie, 9.2km, 175m. Glad this was a flat one as my legs were still in no mood going up hills. Clean run technically, which is a challenge on a map as inconsistent as this, and was running okay as well. Shame there are so many paths here as there is a lot of brilliant terrain that is too fragmented, but enjoyed the woods very much nonetheless.
Map - JK relay map also added.

Took this morning very easy; hung a few controls, shadowed a bit and collected, all very slowly as my legs didn't want to do anything that wasn't flat.

Enough. Legs dead. Need rest. Hung the controls and went home!

Had a look around the start of the course from Saturday. Map definitely not correct or showing right information at #1 and the vegetation change at #4 caught out everyone even though they knew it was there...

Ran to the car park to use the toilet as it was quicker than standing int he queue!

JK Relays, Newtyle Hill, 5.4kn, 235m, 3rd leg Premier. JK relays are always so frustrating as there's never anything left int he legs after the individual races! Steady runs from Rosco and then Grump set me out in a fragmented pack with Mark Saunders, Dan Haliday and a Norwegian. Managed to hold my ground on the climbs but legs were too wrecked to descend at pace, so lost positions there. Navigation was straightforward so no time to be made there, Stig also floated past at one stage, not going all that much quicker but I couldn't respond at all. Managed to pass the Norwegian on the last climb but then had nothing left to catch Roar who I caught just before the last control.
