Dumgoyne

 Back to Dumgoyne, set off from beside the distillery, aim was to run a bit further up the hill than last time, took it easy on the run up the field, once over the styles I didn't look up, just concetrated my gaze a couple of feet in front and kept my breathing under control, a wee bit further this time and managed to reach the top of the grassy stretch then jog walked to the top, 1/2 a minute quicker than last time.

The main gulley looked good for a run but when I got into it the scree didn't flow and ended up walking more than running, slower than the smaller chutes and a longer traverse back round from the bottom.

 

View towards Glasgow from the bottom of the chute

Back on track for the undulating run to the Earls seat, worked hard at taking the climbs nice n steady and managed to run all the way arrived at the trig in 66 mins. Stopped for a drink and a picture of the cloud lying in the Corrie of Balglass.

Turned for the run back, jacket on in the misty rain, only a few short ups and managed to run them all, finished in 1 hour 45.
