I had planned to have a day off today but last night at Neal’s ‘get together’ Marco invited me to join him, Thomas, Matt and others for a run. We are only doing 10 miles and it will be at a really easy pace.
It sounded good so I got up early and met them at 8am for a run on Kilpatricks. I suspected it wouldn’t be 10 miles (it was 12.65 miles) and it may have been at an easy pace for Marco but I was working fairly hard!!
Marco took us on a variation of the route that he originally took me on which was good.
The weather was great … cold but not much wind and a layer of cloud that we were above so the views were excellent.
I was able to chat to most of the group at various times which is half the fun for me. I’ve not been able to run with Thomas for a few years as he’s been injured so it was great to run together again.
Marco is running a 24hr race in Barcelona next weekend so we all wished him well. I took a few photos along the way.

Thomas took this one so I could get in!

I like the view of Ben Lomond behind me covered in snow.
On the way back we met Pete and Aurel who were out for a run so I got another photo with them included.
Thanks for inviting me Marco. I really enjoyed my bonus run! I have now run 2,002.55 miles this year so I just have 12.45 miles to go to reach my 2015 miles in 2015 target.
