Whinny Hill Cross Country

Second race in this years club championship, good conditions, plenty of mud, a cool breeze and the rain stopped just before we set off. A lap of the grassy area in front of the Castle in Balloch Park to start, running along to the bottom of Fairy Glen, slow plod up beside the stream across Boturich road onto the upper trail, up through the woods on the hardcore trail before the muddier top loop, return route similar except missing out the lap of the park, coming back to the castle from behind, inside 50 minutes for the 4 1/2 to 5 mile route.
