Mood: Well my lovely cough is still hanging about and I did cough my way to the top of the first steep ascent. After that my breathing got a bit easier. I was wearing Icehacker socks, they were bought with Kili in mind. Unfortunately they are just too thick for my boots. I had cramp in my toes and had to stop to put on a different pair of socks. Some tried and tested socks. I had also manage to put a little cut on one of my toes from the toe nail next to it. My toes were just too squashed up. Much better after changing my socks. Today we were going to be doing 3 munroes, but we had to come down after the first. It was soo windy it was getting a bit dangerous. So Munro total sitting at 23 now. It was good to be out walking. I felt so strong, fit and healthy it was great.
