Red Moss 2021

Great to see hill runners doing what we love - out racing in the hills again!

The weather was kind and with a record turnout of 151 runners, both the Mens and Womens course records were broken

Thanks to all the race volunteers at start and finish and marshalls on the hills - and Catriona Bruce of Blastrunning for the very efficient chip timing - results below

Thanks also to the local landowners, farmers and Pentland Hills Regional Park for allowing the race to go ahead

Apologies that under existing restrictions there was no get together in the Grey Horse Inn this year and no formal prize giving.

Something to look forward to next year in June 2022!
