Mt Rob Roy run on Boxing Day is a bit of a tradition now started in 2006. A good excuse to get out after Christmas Day. Only once have we had to terminate the run to the mountain due to really bad weather. That run was done a few days later.
Also today was run No 58 to the top of the mountain. That's plenty of times going either direction with the reverse way from Conder the easier way except for the loose surface heading back to the Theodore sub station.
Joined for company by Softshoe, Martin & Bryony who are all going to Bogong 2 Hotham in just over a couple of week's time.
Good solid running with a little walking, plus plenty of chat. Weather was near perfect under sunny skies. Good to get under 7 minute km pace.
Easy day tomorrow and hopefully won't get the sore quads like I did after last Saturday on Mt Tennent.
