Distance: 7.5km | Ascent: 600m | Duration: 17 days | Feature: endless climb | Runners: 71
“El Matador” Mark Hartree set a fine course up and around Carnethy hill. Recommended to those that missed out. It needed some will power to get up one of the Pentland hills stiffest climbs.
Handicaps predictions were tough. Overall the most accurate so far, but at the faster and slower ends of the field the handicap predictions were unattainable. Handicapper is blaming the collective strong performance on Swanston event, maybe, or just the formula struggling with longer runs.
Handicap – Top 3 places:
Congratulations to Pete Cain the handicap winner. With only 4 seconds between 1st and 2nd this might have come down to those high-speed selfies.
Position | Name |
#1 | Pete Cain |
#2 | Angus Davidson |
#3 | Nick Schierloh |
Current Handicap Series Leader: Morag McIntyre
After 4 events’, Morag has potentially championship winning points but there are still 2 events to go and it’s best of 3. There are plenty of contenders with only 2 event scores sitting very high up the table.
Ladies – Fastest course times
Lucy Stanfield ran the fastest ladies course time, another solid run. Clare and Michelle remaining consistent with good performances in every event so far.
Name | Run time |
Lucy Stanfield | 57.53 |
Clare McDonnell | 58.36 |
Michelle Hetherington | 59.11 |
Gentlemen – Fastest course times
Sam Tosh ran the course record time. A new Carnethy member, new to Edinburgh, but not new to fast hill running! Eóin did his best to sabotage himself missing the exit down the gully, but still posted a good time.
Name | Run time |
Sam Tosh | 41.30 |
Andrew Fallas | 42.01 |
Eóin Lennon | 42.20 |
