I know a few are interested in doing the Winter edition of the Crags race on Saturday 5th January, starting at 1pm. For those that have not done it before, it is a hill race up and down over a circular route. The first mile is straight up 800 feet on a rough footpath, then descending along the moorland ridge top on a sheep trail for a half mile before a further mile downhill on tarmac before the final half to three quarter mile on a steeply undulating forest track. It will either be very muddy or very frozen under foot, so some sort of trail shoe is usually best. Here is the latest information from the organisers, Alistair and Sheila, sent out today:
It's time to kick start your New Year with a wee run up the Callander
Crags. Your organising committee have been working hard all year to
make this event a huge success with all the usual wonderful prizes, and,
of course, the chance to see all your results from 1986 to last June's
race.
Are you at your peak or over the hill. Find out this Saturday
Adults and children are all most welcome to come along and join us.
Children under 13 need an adult who can keep up with them!
Registration starts at High Noon in Tulipan Crescent. Look for the red
VW van/Race HQ.
For gadget lovers the postcode is FK17 8AR.
Looking Forward to seeing you.
Alistair and Sheila
