Notes
My first run with Franc this Christmas up on the snowy hills of Dumfries & Galloway. Franc with his hamstring probs and I with CS today. It is not easy running on the snow although it was so beautiful looking around. Magic scenery that one forgets the pain. This run was tough for my legs especially for first 3 miles. Then eased slightly for 2 miles and I finished with a sensation of almost running in wooden legs. I was so glad to finish and satisfied with the 8 miles. Franc also struggled more than he expected. So, in terms of quality running it was not an easy run for both of us but we enjoyed the run in other ways. First hopefully of many to come. Now I will try to build up gradually again and go with the body.
It is so hard running on snowy surface. My legs were all over the place on the return especially down hill. This has been the worse in terms of snow in U.K and Scotland over the last 20 yrs.
