Congratulations to John Ryan for completing 40 Munros in under 48hrs at 0308 this morning. Starting a circuit from Linn of Quioch his route visited Lochnager, Driesh, Cairnwell, Beinn a Ghlo hills, up to Sgur Gaith, Angels Peak, Macdui, finishing on Beinn Bhreac plus 32 Munros in between back to Linn of Quioch.
Stats are in the order of 220km and 12,000m of ascent, much of which is pathless.
His support runners did a fantastic job doing legs ranging from 45km, 55km, 70km plus 23hrs hill support each to keep him going. Others did key jobs like Anne Renville collecting, feeding and moving support runners.
Further details will come, but a few borrowed piccies for a flavour of this epic effort.
