The day before …





It’s the Highland Fling tomorrow and I’ll admit to being a little nervous about my first ultra. I have no idea how to pace it so my plan is to walk the uphills, gently jog the flats and downhills and see how I go.

The forecast is for heavy rain in the morning but clearing up later in the day, I would prefer to run in rain than bright sunshine, so hopefully it won’t clear up too much.

We’re heading down to cousin Ian’s house in Kirkintilloch tonight so we don’t have far to go in the morning. He’s also kindly agreed to help with support team duties.

I hope to update with a full race report next week, which with a bit of luck will conclude with me crossing the finish line.
