fraggle Sep 2017 4:25pm, 26 Sep 2017 1,289 posts	0 fraggle hi all, I loved my trip to Scotland last weekend, it was great to be back there and to finally meet the lovely Nessie in person found Loch Ness mara to be quite tough - not a flat as maybe their course profile suggests, with way more undulations, and that hill after Dores was very tough. By that point my running mate's wheels had fallen off and we were doing a run-walk fartlek between the cones. would definitely go back and do it again, the scenery was stunning and the people very friendly. PS - Not the biggest fan of bagpipes in the world, but seeing that band at the beginning standing on the rainy and windswept moor did bring a bit of a lump to the throat

Nessie Sep 2017 4:38pm, 26 Sep 2017 255 posts	0 Nessie Lovely to meet you at last too, Fraggle I did the same on the hill, with a lovely Liverpudlian lady I teamed up with at Foyers. We were running 2 cones, walking 1, then 1:1 on the steep bit. At least the wind dropped a bit after we got going......
