South Queensferry

Maxwell was across for a long weekend. Pictured out at South Queensferry on a cold but sunny morning following by lunch at the Hawes Inn.

Festive Frolic - Vogrie

The 4 of us plus Maxwell went out to Vogrie for the annual festive orienteering event. The puzzle element was relatively straightforward this year. Max had a good run whilst Colin and Hannah had a leisurely walk with an occasional jog. Nice meal at the Sun Inn afterwards.

Beecraigs Trail Race

Great weather for this annual boxing day event. I went for the two lap 14 km option around the lovely woodland course which takes in a loop of a lake and a small hill. Felt fine for lap 1 saving myself for a strong second loop which never happened as I was feeling tired and ending up plodding round the second loop at a very slow pace. Lovely event though.

Queens Drive Race

A warm but windy Sunday morning for my fourth outing in this race. A couple of weeks for fairly active training helped to pushed fitness levels up and was able to push hard round the course. Beat quite a few familiar faces by a decent margin so felt like a pretty good effort.

Glasgow 3 Parks

Max and Colin entered the 3 Parks race for the first time in a number of years. The weather was nice this time - clear skies and relatively warm for the time of year. Courses at Garscube, Kelvingrove and Drumpellier Country Park.

Fairly decent performances but as always the competition is tough.
