Golfing today, trying to save myself for tomorrow, after my debacle at Glenbarr.

Enjoy your Saturday run for thos that are not tapering for Balloch next week. Elaine have a good 20 miler, "ouch".

I am already whincing at the thought of mine, only good thing about mine,it is flat,very flat compared with your's.

8 am for me as usual at the Aqualibrium on Sunday.

See you all Tuesday.

I'm going to have to head out earlier tomorrow morning due to other plans. If anyone wants to join me at 8am please let me know. (PM me)

Wont make 9am either today, going to head out about 10am, thinking Machrihanish today.

Was a killer route today! Ouch indeed DJD!

Hope everyone else enjoyed their run, good day for it, everyone was flying up those hills to peninver.

Managed my 20 miler ok although I was cursing myself at various points for picking such a hilly course despite many attempts from Stuart to change my mind I was stubborn or maybe mad lol.

Only walked a little (and nearly cried) when I got to mile 12ish to find a 'road closed' sign, 3 big diggers and a huge pile of dirt! Well I wasn't for turning back so I got ankle deep in the muck and scrambled over the top of the muck to get back on track to the lussa road end!

I forgot how hilly the whole route was and I never seen a soul from ballochgair until after skeroblin where out of the blue Stuart appeared in the car with juice (Orange squash has never tasted so good) and I was pleased that I managed to resist the temptation of jumping in the car! That welcome surprise gave me the boost I needed to get home but I don't think I could have went a cm further never mind 6 miles!

Well done Elaine, sounds like if you can do 20 miles on that route, you do anything....you're one determined wee lady.

Well Done Elaine, enjoy the knowledge of " you did it " and enjoy the rest of the weekend too.

Hope you all had a good run this morning.

Sorry Rab and Kevin, I won't be running tomorrow morning as to this Plantar fasciitis has knocked me back,probably take a week off, so I doubt I will make training this week aswell .(pain in the arse this, one thing after another).

Will be up for March Madness next week,cannot afford to miss that one,my last long run big run.Looking forward to it too.
have a good week everyone.

Since no March Murder at the weekend a few of us are meeting at Aqua at 9 for a long slow run if anyone wishes to join. Also a few going out at 9am Sunday, again meeting at aqua.

Ralphie and I managed 12 miles yesterday---felt pretty easy actually. This training must be working. Darren joined us for a bit of it. Nice to see you out again Darren. Time to step up the mileage,now, to incoporate Mondays and Wednesdays. Hope to do 5 miles tonight.

Yip definitely time to start slotting in the extra miles on Mondays, my legs however always feel really tired on a Wednesday so am going to opt for a swim or cycle on this day instead.

I ran to Southend yesterday which gave me 10.5miles, and it was just a pleasure to do on such a nice day.

Good to hear your out and about again Darren.

Donald hope your injury is healing and you'll be back soon.

Rab,

Are you and Ralphie still going on Sunday morning at 9am?

Yes we are Kevin. How are things with you?

Planning on running down the Southend rd tomorrow, have left my car down so could take 3 people back in if anyone fancies going all the way and stopping at Frances's Tea Room for a scone and tea Will be at Aqua for 9am.

Remember and take the car keys
