Report

Ran the Highlands trail on the 22nd. We had a bit of a late start but the weather was beautiful and the colours had turned on the trees. We finished in 5 hours 23 minutes and 49 seconds. To be honest I had hoped on being faster but we stopped a fair bit in the last 10km, Kevin was feeling pretty rough and was struggling on most of the uphills. I don't think I gave the trail enough respect, there was a total of 925 meters of climbing according to Kevin's GPS. No excuses, I should have trained harder. We had a great time and I would love to go back and see how much faster I could go.
