Almost perfect weather this year – no wind, no snow, no rain, no sun… ok we can forgive the latter (although it was forecast) as it was just very pleasant and great for running. Far flung exiles made welcome returns – Lynsey all the way from Exeter, Cat all the way from Inverness and Jeff all the way from York. Others appeared and disappeared throughout the run, popping up then disappearing again. A feast in Penicuik – love those enormous bacon/sausage/egg rolls. Willie confused us a bit by sometimes being at the back, so we didn’t stop in the usual places as we tried to catch up, leaving him even further behind. We arrived at the Alan Ramsay with the light just fading, where the fasties had been for some time. Legally they are supposed to go to the Bore Stane first but inexplicably they just stopped at the first sight of the cosy tavern.
A fine run. Same again next year please!
