Training run.

I am also planning a back to back training run prior to the race, but unfortunately have to work on Friday 16th so cant get out with JK et al.
Also not planning to do quite so much mileage(40/35)

My plan is to do Drymen -Derrydarroch on sat (31miles)
& then travel to glencoe & on sunday do Blackrock cottage to the Fort (25 miles).
Start drymen at8.30 running about 7 - 71/2 hours.
There will be support to meet me(us) at balmaha,rowardennan & beinglas?derrydarroch -on day one. Finishing time would also tie in to bus time at Drovers for anyone just wishing to do saturday.

However, why not bring sleepingbag,mat,stove etc with gear for an overnight stay in our luxurious (sic) club hut "Jacksonville" & come along on day two as well ! We should be able to sqeeze gear for 3 other overnight runners in our car but if anyone wants to bring there own support & car thats fine as there is room for about 10 in the Hut (free).

On sunday leisurely start at 10.00 with support to meet us at Kinlochleven,lundavra & the fort.Take about 6 1/2 hours. with a lift back to Glencoe to collect gear then down the road.
Interested ??
