A jog home followed by hill reps in the woods of Craig Phadrig. A tough hill, but much more pleasant doing hill reps on a forest track than using a road in the dark.

04/04/10 - Inverness

Distance: 32.2km/ 20.0miles
Altitude: 5m/ 18ft
Temp: 7°C/ 45°F
Weather: Overcast

I have 20 miles today and opt to add in a few hills, first doing a couple of laps over Craig Phadraig to give Barny a run and scout then lay a trail for a Hash run, then heading Southwest to pick up the Great Glen Way over Craig Dunain. I'm more familiar with the area now and follow the marked way further before picking up a forest road which brings me back to the route of my last long run. By the time I get down to the canal I'm really struggling with hypoglycaemia (only brought one gel on the run, should have brought two!) but manage to struggle home after a short rest.

I have 10 miles to do today and finally drag myself out of the house at about 10.30pm. In the cold and dark I stick to familiar bits of Inverness and judge the distance perfectly.
