Distance: 8.3km | Ascent: 435m | Duration: 15 days | Race: 46 | Total runners: 55
Just two checkpoints and “tremendously sparse notes” – what is not to like. There were plenty of favourable handicap times coupled with good solid run times resulting in 44 beating their predicted time.
“Great to finally work out how to get to the biscuit can and nice single track contour descent around Turnhouse to the finish”.
“Lovely route. Off course twice!”
Sasha apparently allocated Ryan Simpson a handicap time, which did not turn out well, finishing a clear last.
Thanks to Declan and helpers on finish line. Mark arranged “Post handicap pizzas at Stewart’s Brewery…. possibly the best finish of the day !”

Handicap – Top 3 places:
Congratulations to Mark the race and overall winner.
“The three of us waiting at the finish line were speechless when we saw Mark and Barra coming in way ahead of the field”. Mark has since tested positive for steroids.
