It was looking bad on the drive over to Selkirk with rain and torrential downpours, however we were lucky and it stopped, leaving just a very damp mist which was not at all cold so it was quite a sweaty run. Not good conditions though for photos or views.
5 Carnethys present – at least I *think* Fergus is a Carnethy…
1st V60 prize for myself due in no small part to the apparent lack of any other V60s. Prize being a Selkirk bannock and race glass bearing the legends ‘Three Brethren 7 mile race’ and oddly, ‘Tibbles 4 miles’, presumably chasing after a lost cat at Tibby Tamsen’s Grave.
Lots of goodies from local sponsors with lots of race finish healthy snacks, race prizes and medals for the juniors. Volunteer troops manned the kitchen and laid out a spread of sandwiches and cakes. What other race has a spot prize of a round of golf for four? Or candles! Great stuff.
