The joy of running...felt great to be back on the hills this afternoon for a short run round Carman reservoir, through the quarry and back via Stoneymollen, about 7 miles with over 1000' of ascent.
Weather mixed sun, rain and a bit windy but nothing like those lucky people in this picture at this weekends OMM. I like this picture of one of the competitors enjoying the conditions. Lots more pictures, videos and stories on the Sleepmonsters Website and on the OMM Website. Those involved seem to have been properly equipped and experienced to cope with the tough conditions and all 2000 or so are safely off the hills.
Back to my little run and great views from Overton & Bromley Muirs of the squalls blowing up the Firth of Clyde and view up Loch Lomond to Ben Lomond, cloud base over 3200'!
Reached the top of Stoneymollen in about 58 mins means a bit to go fitness wise, hopefully I can put in some consistent miles on the hills over the next few weeks.
