Ben Nevis race, 3 September

The Ben Nevis race is one of the stand-out races in the Scottish racing calendar, not least because it goes up and down Britain's highest mountain! In Adrian Wake, we're fortunate to have someone in the club who's been up and down it more times than most, and whose wonderful achievement of 21 successful races was recognised with the award of a special bottle of whisky from the Ben Nevis distillery.

For this event, Adrian was joined by Ben, who now has a considerable tradition to uphold - good luck! Also running were Will, Colin and Gordon. Will continued his very strong season to finish in 13th position in 1hour 44minutes. Colin wasn't too far behind, finishing in 1hour 57minutes, and Gordon came home in 2hours 35minutes. Fantastic achievement by everyone involved.
