Armchair viewers might be interested in the progress of Carnethy (Konrad, Jasmin and Jim Mann (Helm Hill)) over the next week. They were in 8th at the first checkpoint but plenty of time to make up those 7 places as they have a wee bit more to go before they finish sometime later this week. PTL page here. Follow their progress at the tracker link below.

Further….
Some of the UTMB series of races have already started, but who should we be watching out for? Well, here’s a quick summary of the good and the great Carnethyonians in addition to Jasmin, Konrad and Jim Mann!
In the already-started TDS race (Acronym for “Sur les Traces des Ducs de Savoie” – 145km and 9,100m ascent) we have:
Phil Humphries,
Gregor Heron
Both are approaching the 50km mark and looking strong.
In the OCC (acronym??, 55km and 3,100m ascent) we have:
Eoin Lennon,
Nicola Duncan
Good luck to them all! Have I missed anyone? Let me know!
Here’s the tracker.
