Sarah and I had a go at this race as a wee run out before Ben Nevis. We did not turn up with any hope of being selected for the Scottish Team for the Commonwealth Mountain Running Team, which this race was being used as a trial for. The club can be assured that we were not good enough to be selected.
The field was quite small 36 seniors in total, and for a brief moment I thought I would last as running were Robbie Simpson, Hector Haines, Jamie Stevenson, Alasdair Anthony and Prasad Prasad were notable names there.
The race was won by Robbie Simpson, Deeside in 40:46.
First female (10th overall) was Catriona Buchanna, Ochil in 49:15
I finished 16th male (22nd overall) in 53:50 and Sarah was 8th Female (31st over all) in 64:17.
There were also races for the juniors, for selection for the junior home internationals, these were won by:
U14 Girls Ana Brocklebank, Fife AC
U16 Girls Emma Dunnett, Edinburgh
U19 Girls Louise Hill-Stirling, Ayr Seaforth
U14 Boys Matthew Galloway, Lothian
U16 Boys Chris Galloway, Lothian
U19 Boys Adam Harris, Fife AC
