Sweeping the second half
Pity to miss the start but we had to go and get the Drove Road drinks station food at Lidl. In spite of Cali’s best efforts we bought, and still have, a remarkable number of bourbon creams. Still, no-one went short. And a feature of forthcoming Carnethy events will be… bourbon creams. Why did the adventure show not hear of this? (they were filming). The front runners came tearing down West Kip and away, and the rest of the field began to arrive to an appreciative audience of walkers clutching bourbon creams. Several thousand German students then appeared and variously wandered across the course or sat down on it. We were too busy to force our bourbon creams on them, which was a shame. Such a delicacy is not available there. Bill arrived in some splendid shorts and sat down to refresh. Starting an hour early Bill put in a very creditable time of 5 hr 37 mins for the 16 mile and 6200ft ascent course. Eventually the first half sweepers Kate and Moira arrived and we (me, Helen and Trevor Collins) set off to do the second half. In a lovely pearly afternoon light we made an effort to catch up with the last runners; I think Trevor did, I was very tired from yesterdays race so very much a mouse. We missed a trick by telling the roaming camera crew we were actually the sweepers and there were no more runners. We finally finished and thanks to Joanne there were still some custard creams left. Though any biscuit containing the word cream was by now less than appetising. The second great day out in a row!
