RO's report:
"The first race of the Kong Mini Mountain Marathon 2018 Series was held on Carneddau in North Wales, starting from Bethesda. The weather was absolutely stunning. Snow on the mountains, cold, but beautiful views over the mountains and straits. Neil Talbott from Ambleside AC won the overall race with an amazing 690 points. Rowena Browne from Bowland Fell Runners was first lady with 460 points. It looked like everybody had a good time and the soup and cakes went down well. Well done to the winners and everybody for participating. "
