Arrochar run

Set off early for a run over Ben Vane and Beinn Ime. Warm running up Glen Loin, a few walkers out. Onto the hill path and found it hard work, stopping every few minutes. Good views to Loch Lomond, Ben Vorlich and A'Chrois on the way up.

Thought about turning back at the top, a drink of water and a couple of jelly beans seemed to resolve the problem and within a few minutes felt fine as I reached the top of Vane.

Views were good with a bit of cloud floating about for atmosphere.

Met a few people on the usually deserted down and up between Vane and Ime. Took the quick line up the gulley. Views to Paddy's Milestone and the Paps of Jura from the top.

Easy run down to Bealach a 'Mhaim then followed the path beside the Buttermilk burn then zig zags back to the finish at Succoth in just over 4 1/2 hours, more pictures here.
