Our marshals have a bit of a reputation for their enthusiasm - I bribe them with tea & cake afterwards and it seems to work, except they also bake all the cakes so actually they don't get that good a deal out of it :-) Look forward to seeing you next year.

Yes we are quite a friendly bunch and our marshals are known for their superb encouragement - they are given no training at all, it comes naturally! All the hard work is worthwhile when we hear that the runners enjoyed their experience - hope to see you back next year... Susie Thanks Anne.

Apologies to Richard Hadfield of Portobello (No 107, 41st place) whose number had been entered accidentally as 102! This meant that Malcolm Cunningham (the real 102) appeared twice and now must concede 41st place to Richard! Hopefully all is now correct but please let us know if you spot any errors...Cheers, The Web Bloke. Small adjustment to the results.

Very well done to you and Mike, sounded like a killer although I'm sure the views made up for it. And a dash for the Dobbies facilities afterwards! Bad luck Rob, you were brave even trying it with your recently injured calf. Rest up all 3 of you! what a fab report Duncan, I felt I was there with you!

Was very jealous but the big climb out of Glen Ample would probably have finally snapped my calf. Hard decision but the right one. I might disappear for a while as I somehow need to re-build my legs.
