Only joking !! but below is a picture I took today of the Cateran Trail Race start line when I was up opening the snow gates in Glen Shee -
On a separate note I went for a 16 mile run to try and kick start my training last week in the Loch Ordie area near Dunkeld. It went well, with no aches or pains, but I did develop a mad craving for sausage rolls during the last couple of miles, so had to stop off via the bakers in Dunkeld on my way home.
Training has now been halted due to all the snow, but I have purchased a turbo trainer so hope to get some miles in on my bike. A turbo trainer is a much safer option than bike rollers, and for those that missed Marco's attempts on rollers that was recently posted on Deb's blog, then click here to see it - absolutely fantastic (Debs - I hope it's not copy writed, but I figured the more people see it the better !).
I'l buy some giant hairdriers and defrost the route. You and i can cope with running on it in the snow so i'm sure the hardcore entrants will cope :)

Great photo of the start of the Cateran Trail.
ReplyDeleteWhat's this about the snow halting your training????
Get out there Gavin and run in the snow!
Have a great Christmas and see you in the New Year!
