Bog and Burn 6 mile 1700' of ascent race with lots of Bogs and Burns. Starts from Crow Road Car Park in Campsie Glen behind Lennoxtown and goes up over a couple of unnamed tops before Cort Ma Law, then its another couple of unanmed tops before Lecket Hill then a good downhill run and slog back up to join the outward route and the steep/fast descent to the finish.
In between the tops the track undulates along through streams, tussocks and bogs so you soon realise you don't need lots of steep climbs for a hard race. Fell 3 or 4 times and thigh deep a few more, worked hard after the first climb and passed more than passed me but lost 1 place in the last 50 yards due to an annoying detour at the top of the final descent.
Midgie city before and after the race, more like Ben Sheann than CML.
