EUOC SoSOL - Holyrood and Meadowfield Parks







Holyrood and Meadowfield Parks includes Arthurs Seat in Edinburgh - an area I last ran on some 25 years ago when I competed in a fell race there and also the 7 Hills of Edinburgh race. I entered the Brown course which was 8.7k with a whopping 550m of climb and 27 controls. I took 72 minutes which gave me fourth place behind Steve Nicholson, Ben Hartman and Graeme Ackland. I was running with Steve for part of the course - he got away at 18 where I lost time - probably as a consequence of the previous leg which involved a savage climb. I also lost time at 20 - where I drifted too far east.

Results.
Splits.
