West Highland Way

My loch brother has a penchant for all sorts of extreme challenges. We swam with basking sharks together. He has also done an Ironman and swim the length of Loch Lomond. this year he has a place on the West Highland Way race at the end of June. 95 miles to be completed in under 35 hours. I volunteered our services as support crew.

We had a meeting tonight with his ultra running mentor, now one of the organisers of the race. What an amazing enthusiastic and inspirational guy (who also looks about 10 years younger than he is!)

Anyway, plans are starting to take place. Unexpected outcome is we may need to do some support running towards the end of the race, especially as C is likely to still be running when it gets dark. I'm feeling excited about a reason to start running again. JT isn't worried, he reckons by the time support runners are required C will be 70+miles in and so we will have no problem keeping up!
