Its the first dry weekend that Ciaran is with me ( and not away skiing in the Alps or camping in the Highlands) so we have a cycling weekend planned. A run with Fiona into Irvine today and a trek around Whitelees for the boys tomorrow. Well that was the plan. It snowed again on Wednesday, pretty much all day. It was thawing but more snow on Thursday night/friday seems to have made Whitelees not an option. Still we had today.
Although it was a nice looking morning it was cold, especially with the moist breeze. Of course, that normally would be an excuse for going fast. We could see the amount of snow on Arran and at the windfarm over by Dalry and figured that Whitelees would be worse.
We ended up being out jut over 90 minutes for the 13 mile run, but that was over fairly flat terrain.
Back to the house for soup, crusty bed and hot tea (coffee and hot chocolate for the others)
There is now only about 8 weeks til the Maggies event and active fundraising has to begin. I will have to print out the sponsor form and start harassing the badminton crowd! Being older, they won't like using the online sponsor form at http://www.justgiving.com/tuvnel-maggies-team-2010
(subtle hint for those who I cannot physically accost)
