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.
