The DMC runners have been out enjoying themselves over the summer, everything from enjoyable runs along the shore, to hill “runs”, and even extreme ultramarathons. Now the “nights are drawing in” it’s time to get back to evening group runs, and Backmuir Woods was a great place to restart. Plenty of nice woodland trails, open fields, and (my favourite) Spinky Den. First time down it for me, as I normally run up it!

Lovely countryside running, a great group activity, plenty of blethering, and different speeds catered for. If you’d like to get out and run a bit more then definitely join the run group in DMC Discord, you’d be most welcome!
