Drymen 10k, Sat 26th Aug

Blytheswood Care 10k in Drymen, ran this to try to get some speed into the legs for next weeks assault on Ben Nevis.

Race starts on the road behind the Winnock Hotel but we were soon directed onto a V muddy path to test your balance for a km or so. The route then undulates between farm track, road and path for the rest of the race. Running surface about as changeable as the weather, rain, sun, cloud and a breeze. Most enjoyable race a bit different from the usual road 10k. Low key but well organised with water stations and plenty of signs and marshalls to make sure you did not get lost in the maze of tracks and paths around Drymen.
