Cuillin ridge record broken

[Baggins]

Maybe not a long distance challenge but has 3000m of ascent in 10k!

Here's a short article and the times

Very impressive

Having taken the best part of a week to complete the ridge last year, I'm just about speechless - mind you that did include setting up a bivvy, learning how to climb and retrieving the (unused due to wet weather) bivvy. Even discounting that, I still took two days!

Awesome.

The prospect of even trying to race across ground like that is terrifying.

Three attributes required
- Incredibly fit
- Sensationally sure footed scrambler
- TOTAL common sense removal!

This is taking fell running to new extremes:

Inn Pin Down Climb

thats amazing. what a day to do it on too. must have been an incredible experience. I can remember downclimbing the inn pinn and looking down between my feet, but to have that and a sea of cloud must have been out of tis world. no wonder es called it heavenly.

for them that likes a longer challenge.
Rob Woodall set a 24 hr black/red and outlyingbits round a few years ago Yiannis Tridimas shortened the time the folling year as far as i know no=one else has had a try.....

But yiannis is having another go this May, and may be Rob. And Ali too I understand. Have a good one ali.

Pretty amazing stuff!
The Ridge is on my "To do" list as I have had 3 unsuccessful winter attempts
The 24h Black and Red + sounds interesting does anyone know where the details of Yiannis's route are?

Hi John, this is on hold due to Yiannis' knee op. Perhaps September? Cheers, Ali.
