With a good number from the club doing the Dumarton AAA 10 Mile on Sunday and several more doing a long-run, Monday's run is an easy run. For those with an impending marathon in the next few weeks, then this is a good chance to do a section of the run at marathon pace (give yourself a a mile or two to warm up and then lock in to marathon pace/effort (remember, as with any run, if the terrain or wind make it more difficult to maintain marathon pace, then ease back to marathon effort as you only have so much energy to distribute through the marathon so don't waste it).
The route is the Auldhouse 5k route, starting off through the glen, all the way to the point where the trail race crosses Langlands Rd on the way out. Then pick up the Auldhouse 5k clockwise circuit and back to the club via Sainsburys and Strathaven Rd.
