Saturday 27 May 2023 saw 224 runners complete the 50th anniversary Isle of Jura Fell Race. Congratulations to overall winners Finlay Wild (Lochaber AC, 3:07:07) and Eleanor Johnstone (Pennine Fell Runners, 4:18:43). Westerlands CCC won the male (Sam Alexander, Stu Crutchfield, Gregor Stewart) and female (Ellen Downs, Ella Foreman, Leyre Flores) team prizes, though the men's team agreed to forfeit theirs in favour of Carnethy, after several red vests at the sharp end of the field stopped to help an injured runner. Sarah Clark (Islay Jog Scotland) set a new Ileach female record of 6:43:36, even stopping to administer first aid to an injured runner on her way.
The new organisers, Westerlands CCC, would like to thank all those who helped and supported the race with their time, prize donations, advice and enthusiasm. Particular thanks to those who came to the aid of those in need - you're a credit to hill running.
