Peebles 3 Peaks Challenge

Created by and first completed by Paul Nichol on 29 September 2018 when he posted:

We did a run today which we are calling the Peebles 3 peaks. Only rules are. Start and stop at the same place - we chose the Trust. Choose your route to the mast then over to Hamilton hill then Cademuir - the picnic table then back to the start. Great fun if anyone fancies giving it a go. Round about 17 miles about 3,000 ft of climb.


Rules:

  1. Start and finish at the Bridge Inn; 
  2. Visit all 3 hill top:Dunslair Heights (602m) the mast at the top of Glentress Forest; Hamilton Hill (371m) the stone cairn at the North East top, Cademuir Hill (416m) at the top of the pilots trail in Cademuir forest
  3. Any route except no retracing of your tracks, as it makes it more interesting

* Colin and Simon ran together until the last mile through Peebles where they decided to see which route was quicker....Simon's was! 

** Iain's clock on Strava started early - Garmin confirms the first sub 2 completion
