We drive out east of Inverness to meet up with the local hash runners, at a wooded hill near the Moray Firth. The demographic of the group is quite old so the pace is slow, but we cover some tough terrain with climbs, dense undergrowth and uncertain footing. It is a good prep in the last week before the marathon (if I watch my footing), easy paced but with a few chances to work hard.
Generally we make out way clockwise around the wood, but the trail twists and turns confusingly for a long period of time until we finally reach a spectacular viewpoint overlooking the Moray firth with expansive views of the coast east and west. Then we drop down near sea level and skirt a firing range before climbing back over to our starting point.
The map approximates out route, it was a lot more convoluted!
