Rest day - helping with Maroc junior teams at Scottish Relays, 7 teams, 21 runners, for 17 it was their first relay... a few nerves.
Got 6 in top 9 of course :-)

Rest day, helping at SOC at Balmoral. Great day and superb event.

Rest day, travelling form Kyle to home approx 0900 till 1500. Legs weary carrying bags up Deeside way to home.
Managed to cut grass later on - that's enough exercise for the day!

RaS Morvich to Skye. Wet day - showers fro the start but tail wind and mild temperature so not too much of a problem. Managed to get everyone safely through the day and all across the bridge.
Nice to have done another RaS, mixed weather and mixed abilities (speed, terrain etc), but a great bunch of people.

RaS, Glen Affric to Morvich. Started in steady drizzle but it cleared after 30-40 mins and then mostly dry for rest of run. Cloud on hilltops most of day, just occasional tantalising glimpses... Good to get all group through, all loved it (varying degrees of love for the long rough descent!).
Legs feeling good and aches diminishing from day 1 - need to do this more often ;-)

Tomich to Glen Affric car park. Slight head wind but rain held off till after lunch. Track along Loch Bein a Mheadhoin has been upgraded for heavy vehicles but still pleasant enough to run on.

RaS day 2, Drmnadroch to Tomich. Another great running day, clouds on Affric his so views not perfect but pleasant. Group good pace on average. No serious injuries. River dip after to see off tired legs - worked its usual wonder!
