Hill Running 55:48 [3] 8.0 km (6:59 / km) +350m 5:43 / km
shoes: Inov8 mudclaw 330

Up Craigellachie from Aviemore. With all the trails around you would think that a good run was guaranteed - unfortunately I think I found the 1 bad run! Up a forest track that petered out, bushwhacked up to the top of the hill, some good running across the tops and the a steep bushwhack back to the road.
Good to be out and nice to get some steep climbing on pretty wild terrain in.

Lock Kinnord 10k - 3rd
Good race for me. Was in 2nd for the majority of the race with Kyle Greig well ahead and James Espie right on my shoulder. Couldn't hold James off on the final few hundred meters unfortunately. Not a bad run for so little training. 1min 8s faster than last year and thankfully no injuries this time.

Around the Bucksburn trails. Feeling a bit sore in my feet and calf muscles from yesterday's speed work. Nice to get in a longish run in great conditions. Wrong footwear choice today. It was much wetter underfoot than I was expecting.

Attempted Gramps. Felt terrible. Zero energy as soon as I started climbing. Aborted the route and got back to the office as quickly as possible. I think it was a combo of nog enough food water and sleep.
