Notes |
It will be cash only on the day. I am waiting to hear back from the Forestry Commission re fees before confirming an entry fee.
The new version of the Kilpatricks Hill Race. Large scale forestry operations in the area saw a new route in 2018 and again in 2019. Now the race is short and speedy.
It starts with a short run along the tarmac before winding along a narrow path to the most Westerly point of Slacks Ridge (CP1). Then the route takes you to the summit (CP2) via a choice of paths. A sharp right turn sees you heading south through the summit bog until you hit the wall and head East along the undulating Craigleith ridge to the stream (CP3). Finally, a rapid descent through the grassy farmers field takes you to the finish line.
Note that parking is extremely limited at the race start. Race parking is provided at Clydebank Dalnottar Crematorium (G81 4SL) 6-10.30pm, under 1 mile from the race start by path. Competitors are strongly encouraged to car-share or travel by public transport – Kilpatrick railway station is 200 m from the race start. | |
