Kipperoch Sun 3rd Feb

Another late night, this time with a Las Vegas theme, meant no driving on Sunday morning. Set off just after 8 in pursuit of a fellow Millie. Ran through Renton & onto the Kipperoch eventually catching what had been a jogging dot on the horizon.

Ran along the main road through Cardross towards Helensburgh and turned up the Red road. The Red Road undulates up, a good test followed by a delightful route choice after the Black Third farm, turn right past the cow feeding station and the associated slurry. All so that we could experience the last wee steep climb before the track through the woods.

Easy jog back down the Stoneymollen and the favourite trudge along the bypass to Christie Park and home. About 13 miles, 1400' of ascent in 2 1/2 hours.
