As the evening has progressed the pain and swelling in Dan's ankle have also (I know what you're thinking, Dan with a swollen ankle, what a sight to behold!) Anyway after further consideration Dan has reduced tomorrow's planned run to 8 hills with an overnight in the van at Glen Clova rather than another wild camp. Gary's massages on the hill (stop it, his ankle!) and plenty of ibuprofen will hopefully see him through.
It's clear that this could be a turning point for Dan. Let's hope that a few careful days speed his recovery.
8 hills through to Glen Doll sounds like a more realistic objective. Then perhaps Lochnagar and Mount Keen the following day, all being well. Perhaps taping the ankles might help.
