43. Busy morning doing outside chores was followed by a 6 km walk with the hound in the drizzle. Just about to squeeze in a bit of yoga with Kassandra.

Holy ****!

Did the 15 mile Illuminator Run at Banchory last night after last minute assurances from the organisers that the course was “wet but runnable”. I have never, ever, been so muddy. Started by trying to avoid the puddles then worked out that running through the streams flowing along the tracks was actually the best for grip. Spent far too long mincing down the slippy descents but had a wee bit of a “sprint” for the last 1.5km or so when back on tarmac.

I didn’t take any photos on the route as I didn’t want to be faffing about with my phone in the rain, but here’s a screenshot of my result.

Nice one Colin.

I went swimming this morning, managed 1000m in 34 minutes.

Then was having a nice conversation in the changing room with an 85 year old fella, who was telling me he had a hole in his heart and about his days in the army. Then proceeded to tell me how the kids have got it easy today, everyone blames the old folk for NHS problems because they’re living longer, but because we don’t have freedom of speech any more we’re not allowed to talk about all the people coming in on rubber dingys who are all getting £200 a week or something….

I made my excuses and left!

Well done on the race @scotroutes

We are still up in the lakes. Popped across Windermere on the ferry and then did a loop back via coniston.

Weather held out

Just back from a week away visiting family. Having no bike or anything else has meant that extended dog walks have been the order of the day for the last six days.
Can’t wait to turn some pedals tomorrow!

Been away next door but one to Comrie Croft. Amazingly did zero biking, despite taking bikes 🤷‍♂️. We were however up the fells every day apart from yesterday when we were splashing about in the River Earn for decidedly elusive salmon.

Got a nice accidental trout though.

Stunning part of the world and the autumn colours were spectacular

Another week completed, not much of significance to report other than Skills Park on Friday.

Another week of walking, some biking and the inevitable Tai Chi at home Is it good when a form of exercise can be described as “inevitable” ?

44. Gym sesh. I had to work most of the day and the prospect of having to wash my mtb after a short dark ride in the on/off drizzle didn’t appeal.

Good effort @scotroutes, and everyone else still going. 6 days and we’re half way!

Walked the dogs earlier under a clear sky and beautiful moon so when I got back I couldn’t resist a quick blast on the road bike.
Feeling much better!

Dipped again first thing this morning in Loch Morlich. Ice bath is supposedly good for sore legs, right?

Walked into town for a coffee and lunch with a mate. That’ll do after yesterdays endeavours.

Gym tonight. First time I’ve been to the gym in about 20 years I reckon! Realised I’ve never been on a treadmill before. Then forgot to stop my watch so it looks like I did 2km in 36 minutes!!

45. Just a fairly vigorous walk up some moonlit lanes and tracks for an hour or so with mutley, while son 2 was at football training.

I’m out.
No big drama or illness – I simply forgot to go out and do something yesterday when I was working from home and doing ‘stuff’ in the evening.
I’ll still be going for ‘club run’ tonight and I’ll still try to get out for lunchtime walks at work, walk to/from junior parkrun volunteering etc but I’m out.

10km walk round some of the lower summits I can see from my house.

Nice colours on a reasonably bright morning

Some well-fed reindeer getting ready for a busy season

Me hiding from the chilly Northerly

Long shadows in the afternoon as the sun’s getting very low now.

Just a smattering of snow and frost in the corries

46. (Yesterday) out and about with the family sightseeing: >12000 steps. The same again today (47) I expect.

Mon night was gravel ride with the cycling club, and yesterday evening I thought I’d see what their Tuesday night ‘training’ rides were all about. Never done any group road riding before and it’s all a learning curve…I learned I’m definitely unfit (well I knew that tbh) but thanks to the 4 folks looking after the beginner (me), I survived to the post-ride pint. Just. 😂 It’s chucking it down today so a walk along the seafront might be my legs’ recovery activity today.

Seafront walk it was too. Started off in the rain, finished with the sun coming out. The yellow buoy turned up with Storm Babet and has stuck around since; walked a bit of the beach I’ve not been along for a while and the damage is evident.

All part of it being a challenge 😉

Sleet today so I think I’ll be remaining mostly indoors too.

Bosh! 30 Mins of weights, bit of kata to warm down. Always feel better for doing it but the darkness is definitely sapping my vigour. Glass of high protein isotonic performance enhancing vino tinto incoming, once the kids are in bed.
