Leading another Caversham walk

As our leader Kieran was away, I was asked to lead the fast group for Saturday's walk. I am not sure how many were in the group but we headed away with the slow group along Cortstorphine and Riselaw Roads. Once we reached Caversham Valley Road the slower group headed towards Concord as my group navigated across the motorway onto Lookout Point.

We walked along Mornington Road until we reached Barr Street. We also met one of the Harrier groups. It was downhill to Kaikorai Valley Road. We walked south until following the road to Concord. It was up Stevenson Road back to Corstorphine Road and back to the clubrooms.

At Concord I encouraged the faster walkers to go at their own pace back to where we started. When not the leader I tend to find someone to chat with and walk middle of the pack. When I lead I have to go to the front which can be a challenge. However we did the 8.5kms in 1:15 hrs whch was a good pace.
