The “Total Time” is my time in Dec. which includes short tea time and breaks. That day the weather was not bad.
I’d love to be able to download your GPX or KML files. Looks like you’ve found some good runs! I’m struggling to rind runs with all the track closures.
Will send them to you. But they are all in 2016. Hope they are helpful.
