To weekend of 2nd / 3rd July

Congratulations to Bob Johnstone who took advantage of a weather window last week to complete his Ramsay Round in 23:48. For the record, Bob went clockwise and ran solo having previously stashed food at Fersit and Loch Eilde Mor. A fine achievement!

Congratulations also to Andy Holt and Alex Welbourne who both defied some robust weather to complete their BG’s in 23 hours and a handful of minutes. As ever with the club’s BG weekend, their support runners did sterling work, especially on the night leg. It is also worth highlighting the work that Richard Hakes has put into the DPFR BG weekends over the last two decades or so. Richard has had a hand in approximately 77 completions!

Junior coordinator

Lewis Ashton, who has done a sterling job as the Junior Coordinator these past five years and counting, will be stepping down from the role next year. The Junior section is thriving and long may this be so. There is an opportunity for someone, or a couple perhaps, to step into Lewis’s shoes and they will get maximum support from both the Club in general and Lewis in particular. Lewis’s report to the AGM is well worth reading and can be found here.
