Carnethy perform well again at Lairig Ghru Race, Braemar to Aviemore
Conditions looked good for the 61 runners who started in Braemar in dry,
still conditions with the cloud banished to the tops of the Cairngorms. The
path was very wet underfoot and showers progressively affected later stages
of the race, becoming steady rain in Aviemore. This didn't dampen the spirits
of the Carnethy runners however with Mark Higginbottom winning the 28 mile
race in 3hrs 33 min, Willie Mykura was first vet in 3rd place overall in
3 hrs 42 min and Jill Tait was first lady in 4 hrs 4 min. Consequently Carnethy
won the team prize too. Other Carnethy runners were Rod Dalitz and Kirsty
Leishman.

Karen Powell comes 3rd in the Caledonian Challenge
The Caledonian Challenge is a fundraising event where participants must cover
the 54 miles between Fort William and Loch Lomond on the West Highland Way.
It was held on the same weekend as the WHW Race and Karen bumped into fellow
Carnethy members going the other way in the race. Although most people walk
the charity event Karen ran it in 10h 22 min 4 sec. Alison Powell also ran
in Karen's team and came 12th overall. Results on the Caledonian

22nd - Eildon 2 Hills Race - British and Scottish Championship Race and
SHR Super League Race.
     
Heavy showers primed the course for some greasy going (especially on the
wooden steps) but the sun was out for the race. The big field was split into
women's and men's starts but the congestion at the steps was still pretty
daunting, with breakouts into the woods to bypass the crawl. The field split
on the ascent line of the second summit, causing a fair amount of confusion
and collision risk as descending runners tried to avoid head-on collisions
with those still climbing. 1. John Brooks (Lochaber) 26-51

HANDICAP REPORT
 Giant
Squid Attack Threat but Race Goes On
Kate Jenkins' normal state of composure was upset last night as she enjoyed
a swim instead of competing. She was startled by a large squid which seemed
to be trying to communicate with her. Her immediate response goes unrecorded
and she escaped unharmed from an incident which would have motivated Steven
Spielberg to make a film.
Meanwhile the runners were struggling back from the Tantallon Castle turn
on a low tide which provided a wealth of route choice. The range of options
had motivated Cali to lure Colin and Keith into crossing a deep flooded channel
to short cut the bay before the castle. It was a questionable strategy, but
the water temperature was pleasant. New Ravensheugh competitors Jill Tait
and Robin Haynes enjoyed their debut on the unusually dry boulders.
Handicapper Willie Mykura gave Keith the mixed blessing of a victory on his
home course, although Colin pushed him hard all the way back to the finish,
passing Kate on the way as she was emerging from the surf to escape the confused
squid.
More swimming, the barbecue and bonfire were enjoyed as the sun set in a
magenta sky outlining the Bass Rock. Even the midges were benign. Angela
M, Jane and Lyn biked down from Edinburgh by various imaginative routes.
The beach race once again showed that rational handicapping can't be done
for this terrain.

GLEN ROSA HORSESHOE RACE, ARRAN
This is one of the top three great Scottish true mountain races. To qualify
for this category a race should have very rough and varied terrain, exposure,
difficult lines of retreat, distance and climb.
These races must be preserved as the international mountain racing format
threatens our traditions.
Dave Freeman and his team put on yet another superbly organised and marshalled
event which sets the standard for others to copy. Arran delivered its usual
perverse weather, but during the race it was reasonably kind in that the
intermittent rain was warmish and the wind was only moderate. Cloud cover
was dramatic rather than difficult.
Ronnie Gallagher led the field home in a time of 2-31-06.
The women's race was won by Jean Cairns of Westerlands in 26th place (3-29-08).
The Carnethy turnout was poor for such an outstanding race.
Andrew Lennie placed an impressive 14th (3-08-56) in his Rosa debut with
no prior knowledge of the area.
Nicholas Fournier placed 20th in 3-22-11 after suffering route choice problems
on the descent of Ben a Chliabhain.
Following his scenic diversion he caught Keith Burns again late on the descent
of Goat Fell to displace him into 21st place (3-22-34).
Bill Gauld placed 31st in 3-53-39.
There were 42 starters.
Ominously, construction is about to start on a knee-wrecking boulder path
down from the A Chir - Cir Mhor bealach, but this shouldn't discourage you
from going to this quite outstanding race next year.

BIGGAR GALA HILL RACE
This 6 mile hill race is really a 10k road race with some steep hills. A
welcome break from the rain allowed a record number of 44 runners to enjoy
a fine evening, and join in the gala celebrations in Biggar afterwards. I
especially enjoyed the ‘bed race’, involving pushing beds on wheels down
the main A702 trunk road!

TRAPRAIN LAW RACE
   
East Linton delivered its usual sunny weather for the Traprain Law Race.
This is an open race following Carnethy's policy of no restrictive "permits" or
surcharges for non-existent services from other bodies.
Conditions were very warm and humid. The river was tranquil and refreshing.
The nettles were stimulating. The killer bees had not returned (was it foot
and mouth disease?). The craggy climb of the Law was dry. The fixed ropes
arranged for the greasy wet conditions of the previous night were unnecessary.
Ronnie Gallagher of Westerlands demonstrated growing Veteran Power with his
outright win in 39-34 and provided another pointer to Senior Men's endangered
species status.
Angela Mudge delivered a predictable new women's record time of 41-43 (Joyce
Salvona's 1996 record was 44-55) and yet another pointer to Senior Men's
endangered species status. She took 4th place overall, following Ronnie,
Keith Hood of Corstorphine and Brian Marshall of HELP.
Carnethy secured the team prize despite the results computer's attempt to
deny them the victory over local team HELP.
Many thanks to the Bill Cowan of the local police, Carnethy members and many
others who helped with the marshalling.

BENS OF JURA RACE
Despite slow conditions with cloud on the tops and heavy going due to recent
rain, Angela Mudge managed to break Angela Brand-Barkers 14 year old women's
record in the Bens of Jura Fell race on her first attempt at the race. She
completed the course in 3hrs 49mins 50secs, to place 7th overall in a field
of 130 runners. David Rogers from Lochaber won the race in 3hrs 19mins 0secs
from Ian Homes of Bingley (3-25). Angela's was one of many Carnethy successes
as Stewart Whitlie, another debutant, had a brilliant run to place 4th in
3hr 43 as well as being first vet, while Kate Jenkins was second woman in
4hrs 21mins and Bill Gauld was first O/60 in just over 5hrs.
Other Carnethy runners at the race this year were Andy Spenceley, 14th in
a few seconds over 4hrs, Colin Pritchard in 5:45 and Hilary Spenceley in
6:30. The Carnethy team of Stewart, Angela and Andy were 2nd team behind
a strong Bingley squad. One of the luckiest people in the field was Dave
Cummins of Shettleston who finished 13th in 3hrs 59mins 59secs ... remember
all finishers under 4hrs get an engraved whisky glass ! But of course that
makes Andy the unluckiest, after just failing to catch Dave on the line,
he missed a whisky glass and a vets prize. Once again the race weekend was
the fantastic social occasion it always is with several hundred people made
welcome by the people of Jura. Definitely one of the best races to do in
Scotland - the whole atmosphere of the weekend is unique.

CARNETHY DO WELL AT CULTER FELL
   
Most of the rain showers held off for the Scottish Champs Race held at Culter
Fell on Saturday 25th May. Phil Davies set a fast early pace and was a minute
and a half clear by Culter Fell, but Mark Rigby pulled back on Comb Hill
and ended up winning comfortably. Stewart Whitlie had an excellent run to
finish 4th and win the vets, but there was a very close battle between Carnethy
and Shetteston for the team prize in what is turning out to be a very competitive
team championship. Good runs from John Coyle (6th), Adam Ward (12th) and
Garry MacInnes (14th) were just enough to beat Shettleston by 1 point ! Most
of the leading women had competed in the Scottish Islands Peaks race the
previous weekend and Lyn Wilson had an excellent run, starting fast and keeping
going, to win. Getting back to some of her old form, Jane Robertson was 2nd
in a very good time, and she is now also 2nd in the Scottish Champs. She
just held off Fiona Dahl of Inverness, with Kate Jenkins in 4th place. Angela
Wood was 3rd counter to make win the ladies team and make it a Carnethy double.

Yorkshire 3 Peaks Race (24 miles, 4500ft)
This years race turned out to be a bit of an epic thanks to appalling weather
conditions. Tracey (Brindley) won the women's race in 3.46 placing 30th overall,
35 minutes ahead of the second lady. I finished 25th only 1 minute ahead
of Tracey. The weather turned really bad on the climb up Whernside where
the runners faced driving cold rain and strong winds. I was feeling somewhat
hypothermic by the summit despite managing to don a spare thermal, cagoule,
hat and gloves (rather difficult when you cant feel your fingers!!). Luckily
the weather relented briefly and I managed to thaw out a bit on the descent.
Lots of runners ended up dropping out and times were slow with Simon Booth
winning in 3.10, 18 minutes slower than his winning time two years ago. The
prestige of the race was illustrated by the large number of people out watching
despite the bad conditions. Another notable Scots performance came from Dave
Cummins of Shettleston who won first newcomer in 3.30, 5th overall.

CARNETHY AT THE LONDON MARATHON
It was quite inspirational running in the footsteps
of all the big names in this multi-record breaking race. The weather was
ideal for marathon running, cool, still & sometimes sunny, and the organisation
of the race was faultless. The ChampionChip on your shoe now measures the
exact start time you cross the line. You don't see many women athletes if
you're running anywhere near the top of the main race, as they're all running
in the elite race - I saw just 2, passing me as I slowed towards the end
of my 3:08 trudge. One of them almost was Jill, who finished in 3:09, knocking
18 mins off her PB.
