From what I can see this race was ran 4 times before:- 2000 2001 2007 2013 There may be previous events not on the system. While we are just over a month away from this race, if you plan to run it, you would be advised to get a recce in and be prepared for a long stint in the hills going by previous results. |
| Mick Hanney | Mar 13 2023, 6:19pm | Just spotted there is 5 previous results in Archive too, so the race appears to have a long history. |

So navigation to wards military road entrance to Fananerin ridge is more straightforward perhaps than previously. |
