Crieff - starts running across playing fields, then road for 0.6 mile, then trail all the way until 0.4 mile of road near the end. So about 5.2 miles of trail, some of which can be muddy depending on weather.

Would be trail shoes, or road shoes with decent grip, for me.

If it’s less than a mile on roads then maybe I will wear my trail shoes.

I've done it both after a dry spell when road shoes would have been fine, and also after a lot of rain when I saw a few falls on downhill off camber muddy sections

First year I ran Crieff there was a lot of churned up mud by the time I got to the top of the hill. Trial shoes would have been useful. I was pretty near the back, mind.

Second time I ran up chatting with Katypie (faster) and never really noticed it.

Gus, you missed the 0.5 miles of grass - seems a laaaang way to the finish across it:-)

Thanks Soapy.

does this mean I get to wander about like Lady Mayoress for a month!?

I'm available for supermarket openings, ribbon cutting, kissing babies, public speeches and bar mitzvahs.

On the subject of anonymous fetchies, I was in the Westerton Arms in Bridge of Allan on Thursday evening, and someone ran past in a fetch T-shirt. Anyone know who it was likely to be?
