Short run today, 7 miles with 2500' of ascent. Starting beside the Glengoyne Distillery, ran up through the fields onto the steep climb up Dumgoyne Hill, reached the top in just over 25 mins, 1 minute quicker than last time. Dumgoyne summit was sitting just under the cloudbase, the rest of the route in cloud. Over the back and a nice scree run on the way down. Didn't try the main scree chute it looked a bit rocky.
After Dumgoyne an nice run along undulating grassy slopes past a couple of cairns to the trig point. Reached the first cairn in another 20 mins then the trig in 20 more. A short stop at the trig point to empty the scree from my shoes then easy running back along the undualting ridge to finish in 1 hour 41.
