We do have some hills up here! Bloody well done dealing with them. So that’s a tough but brilliant run ticked off... and those hills we have build stamina, so it will help you even more when you get back on flatter terrain!

Thanks for the encouragement! I was wheezing like a carthorse... beautiful part of the world though.

Cheers! I’m not powering through - I’m grinding it out - so all kind words really help.
