February 1st

Been a busy few weeks, and that includes runs!

Had my first head-torch run, guided by Tom Sutherland and I totally loved it! We headed off along the railway bridge in Perth, through Norie Miller walk, up Lochty Brae and headed for Scone via Milk Boys walk in complete darkness! Once we arrived in Scone we head back through Quarrymill and along Isla Road. A thoroughly enjoyable experience I look forward to repeating soon.

















Then last Saturday I was off for the first official race of the year, Buchlyvie10k. Iain Beedie drove down and eventually had to put faith in the sat-nav rather than me who assured I knew where to go!
Was a good run out, slower time than last year, but a good one to get under our belts. Big shout out to Iain who ran after a week of feeling crap due to the lurgy.













Tried to up the mileage today, be feeling a bit sore but went for a wee trek out and about, ran up Kinnoull Hill (well the road) to make the challenge a bit harder. Managed just under 10 miles. Need to have a good February with the D33 only about 6 weeks away.

























Ran so far 106.95
To run 893.05
