shoes: Mudclaw 300 b/r
Creag Choinnich Hill Race
Great wee race..a fair way to go for it but so worth it. Piped to the start from Braemar Castle and another piper on the summit. Supposedly Britains oldest recorded hill race or something like that.
Not quite as incessantly steep as I was expecting but still murdered by IanW, MilesN, Dennis McD and SaraH on the way up but the orienteering legs caught them all bar Dennis on the way down...Ian in the last 100m...and Miles did go off course. Lots of fun.
Prize giving and tea and cakes on the 1st floor of the castle..great setting. Bottle of wine for 1st V60...now v60 course record holder..(ssshh.only been run on this course twice).
