some excellent performances this weekend
Andrew Dancer was in the Cheviots for The Montane Cheviot Goat Winter Ultra on Saturday. This is what the wesbite says:
It will test even the most experienced
ultra runner. 55 miles of the harshest winter trails, 9500 ft of
lung-bursting ascent including the highest summit, The Cheviot, standing
at 2,674 ft. Throw into the mix the unpredictable Northumberland
weather that includes everything from deep snow, ice, gale force winds
and torrential rain and you’ll be tested physically and mentally. Non-waymarked
and unsupported with a start time of 6am in the Northumbrian village of
Ingram, the Montane Cheviot Goat promises to be a challenge like no
other.
Andrew had a cracking run commenting:
9th place. So chuffed. Absolutely brutal conditions underfoot across bogs and moors. Great end to the year

Meanwhile on Sunday Craig Henrys was at the Hermitage of Braid and Blackford Hill Trail 10km in Edinburgh http://scurryevents.co.uk/hermitage-of-braid-blackford-2019/

a good run. I finished 40th overall and did it in 55mins 55secs despite losing my shoe briefly in the mud. Would definitely like to do again in spring as it’s a lovely area
