Sunday run on the Kilpatrick Hills
17th January 2010
Thanks to Christine for organising a Sunday morning jog on the Kilpatrick Hills. Conditions were good underfoot despite some ice on the initial ascent. Graham, Ellie, Catherine, Steffen, Christine and I used an extended variant of the race route to take in Duncolm, Cochno Hill and The Slacks in a 2-hour tour, taken at a moderate pace but fast enough to warm the feet after a few dips in freezing water! Hopefully it'll serve as good training for the Burdens. Kudos to Graham for opting to run home from my house once we returned to Glasgow, adding 6 road miles to the hill outing.

Aye - a nice wee Sunday ramble indeed !
Not sure the road miles after was that good an idea ...but it did justify a very large plate of nachos washed down with an even larger latte ...oh yes and tasty wee bit of carmel shortbread !

Oh Graham...the beard, that was a shock. Clearly a lot of work, love, nurture and gardening going into this. But what about the drag?

Aye ....last shave was just before the Ben race last year. The beard drag works well as a poor race result excuse :-)
