Boghall Handicap 12th April 2000

Organiser: Willie Gibson

A good mix of old hands and new faces turned out for the opening run of the series, Willie's classic route climbing steadily onto Allermuir, then a lovely steady decent behind Castlelaw, before the knee-cruncher straight up onto the top, and home. The appallingly wet weather miraculously cleared for the two hours of the run, providing a cold blustery evening for an exhilarating run. Several runners, including myself, didn't read the map and took route deviations, some missing out vital checkpoints. The handicaps were based on the Carnethy 5 race results, and favoured the slower runners for the first race. Consequently the slower runners finished first, giving a fairly wide finish spread. New member Cali Ingham took the tape in her debut handicap run, while Rupert ran the fastest time. Most of us adjourned to our old favourite watering hole, The Steading, for the de-brief and refreshments afterwards.
