As I do every week nowadays I ran to the club run session which was a "tempo" run and then ran home again after the club swim. My "tempo" wasn't very high though.

This likely to become my trademark route (3.65km). Felt OK today.

Short run to Dalry pool for some coaching and then on to Sainsburys for some last minute Highland Fling shopping ;-)

Highland Fling ultra: Had a great race and scraped in just under 10 hours for 53 miles. Legs felt good. Nutrition worked well and I got to meet Tony and Mark (Cooper) on route. It was very funny actually as I was plodding along about 5 metres in front of Tony and Mark without knowing it was then, when I overheard Tony say to Mark about having signed up these two new guys to the challenge, and that is how we met :-)

ReplyDeleteJust watching you guys do the whole 53 miles is a huge inspiration and I will sign up for an easier ultra next year and will be looking to you, Tony and Mark for some training and nutritional tips :)
Fantastic effort. 7,000ft climbing not to be sneezed at either. Also cool you were able to meet CHarles and Tony. best, BB
