Three hardy Carnethies, Sophie Horrocks, Hilary Spenceley and Bartosz Burza, ran the Aonach Mor Uphill Race on 1st January in cold, snowy and icy conditions. The course climbs the Mountain Bike World Cup downhill course, so plenty of slippy rock steps etc to scramble over, but luckily no mountain bikers hurtling down at the same time! Sophie had a great run to win the race (13th overall) by a minute. Bartosz was 33rd and Hilary got the 3rd Over 60 prize. A recommended race with soup and prize-giving at the cafe at the finish followed by a ride in the gondola back to the bottom.
