Started out late, about 11:30 for an anti clockwise run round Glen Loin, about 10 miles and 2000 feet of ascent.
With a 10k yesterday and next weeks BN race in mind an easy run was called for. Took my youngest son (12) on his bike and promised that we would walk the steep hills. Perfect day, sunny with a cool breeze.
Run went well except I had to push the bike up the hills whether he was on it or not. With this unexpected weight training thrown in the planned easy run was soon forgotten. As well as that the bonding session did not last, as soon as we go to the top off he went into the distance only stopping at each of the slight inclines on the way back to watch me slog my way up.
Finished in about 2:35 about 45 mins slower than usual due to carrying a mountain bike half way round. Asked if he would come again, the answer was "not if its that route".
