Saturday long run

7th January 2012

Route and stats on Garmin Connect

This was one of the weekend long run options. Really a medium-long effort, it was knocked off at a good clip with the able assistance of Alasdair Miller and Alasdair Duke. Mr Duke had his trademark rucksack, and Mr Miller looked as unruffled as ever by the pace, although he insisted this wasn’t just an easy jog for him. I think of him as a sort of Don Reid runner….not a hair out of place….no, hang on….that’s just "not a hair", isn’t it? Meanwhile, back at the running, the guys really pushed me on and I think there’ll be another similar run next week – same time, same place for more good training.

James, I hope you enjoyed your climbing. Certainly a nice clear day for it.
