Ultracat 30 Jun 10:29am, 30 Jun 2025 16,295 posts	Quote Pin Ultracat I see they had to stop the Moray 100 at 80 miles due to the forest fires north of grantown. I saw a few runners going past whilst walking the dog at Cragganmore. The hot and windy weather not helping. Would be good for it to rain just now as fire still burning two nights later.

K5 Gus 30 Jun 11:05am, 30 Jun 2025 6,501 posts	Quote Pin K5 Gus I read about one runner who was determined to run 100, so after the official finish at Grantown, he turned around and ran back along the course for 20 miles. Not an official 100 miler, but can understand him wanting to do it.

Dvorak 30 Jun 3:24pm, 30 Jun 2025 28,915 posts	Quote Pin Dvorak Ah ken 😳 I was taken aback the first time I ran it (over 20 years ago!). I was expecting a nice out and back along the Earn. Didnae find out until later that originally it was a run up the hill as part of the Crieff Games.

Ally-C 30 Jun 6:35pm, 30 Jun 2025 27,444 posts	Quote Pin Ally-C Anyone that ever goes across to Lewis on the ferry might be interested in Ullapool Forest Runs, they’re a small friendly group that do races on a Sunday in the Ullapool area. You can find them on Facebook. The last two years we’ve managed a race with them & they’re a good bunch of folk.
