Bit of a fail today. Headed up the east side of Glen Gairn as far as Lary and back the same way. All feeling tired and E in a grump. Decided cakes was a better option.

Tap o Noth hill race. Felt really sluggish and found it hard to get going. Started way back, but gradually passed a few on the climb. AH ahead all the way up, but catching her slightly on the steeper bits and only 2m behind at the top. Hoped to catch her on the way down, but not a hope - legs were just too tired to work on the descent, and she took 50m out of me on the second half of the hill.
5th L. Not a great performance but hopefully all helping move me in the right direction. More hill races in the last 15 days than in the previous 18 months.

A struggle.

From Aboyne out the TW then left along the bottom of Balnagowan towards Duke's farm, back down to the village, through Lady Wood and along river bank. With J. Feeling wappit.

Changes in the pipeline. Lots to think about.

Lap of H'head.

7 x 2' + 1' at Glen T round the 2 bridges. Heart wasn't really in it, so less than maximal effort. Better than a plod though.

To start of intervals and back after

With J down the DW towards Kinker and then R down the alley of trees to cross the A93 at the bend. On down to the river with the intention of running along the bank, but there was no bank to run on, so had to turn round and go back the same way. Don't remember ever seeing the river so high or so brown.
