The second Carnethy champs race and the first of 6 Scottish champs races saw a hardcore of fast Carnethy runners make the trip from Edinburgh, and me. A fresh snowfall overnight was fortunately melting fast but it was still quite cold with a brisk wind, mostly assisting. Snow showers came and went but it was mostly sunny, mud was quite a feature too. You are spared even more photos as I drowned the camera on the descent from Clachnaben when I fell into a bog. Charlotte Morgan was 2nd lady. Krysia, Jacqueline and Ina made up the rest of the ladies contingent. I’m not sure about the male results but we weren’t first or second – the rest of the results had not yet been compiled. But we have been told the men’s team were 2nd and Stewart Whitlie was 1st V50. The organisation was first class with a well marked route and marshals where you needed them. But how can any race featuring a barrel of beer at the finish not be? Results
