Type 2 fun for Clare Bond and I yesterday on the Glen Affric munros. 39km, 3000m of climbing was always going to be a tough shift but battling the elements made it harder!
We did consider an early exit but felt strong enough to keep going. It was only on the last munro that the wind became a bit ‘challenging’!
