From organiser Elaine Stewart:

Robbie Simpson breaks the record in a time of 19:30. Robbie takes the record from Dan Whitehead which stood since 2000 in a time of 19:46.

With thanks to the Forest Enterprise, Aberdeen City Council and the Agricultural College for access and to Colin & Pauline Larmour, Colin Reid, Ewen Rennie, Anne Stone , Keith Varney, Anita Hamilton, Gillian Clunas and Carolyn Hare for their help on the day. Perfect running conditions, nice sunny day…just had to take a slight detour for a rather large fallen tree.

Aonach Mor Race - 1st January 2012
Jan 07, 2012
Due to bad weather conditions the Aonach Mor Gondola and the top and bottom restaurants were all hit by a power cut and so the race was changed to a 5 mile trail run - mainly in the forest, which helped give some protection to the runners from the heavy freezing rain.

A large field of around 130 took part and the race was dominated from the start by Dave Rodgers (Lochaber) who led all the way. In second place and closing in on Dave towards teh end was Andy Fallas (Carnethy). Colin Donnelly (Lochaber) had another age defying run to finish 4th and first Over 50.
