Trekking/Hiking 1:10:00 [2]
Short trip to Scotland to watch Graham run up and down Ben Nevis and to climb a few Munros!
Hike from the race start up the Ben Nevis path until I saw the first runner come down and then I stopped and waited to take photos. While the route requires runners to hand in a card at the summit, once they do that, they can take any route they want down, which meant that while I was standing on the path, there were runners sliding all down the hills making their own routes! There were a few well worn shortcut paths by the time I was hiking back down.
Saw Charlie Ramsay of the Charlie Ramsay Round in the parking lot at Achintee on the way up and again on the way down. Thought I might have been mistaken but Graham confirmed it for me!
