On Sunday 1st May, the Club is hosting the 2022 Scottish Junior Hill Running Championships. The races are as follows:
- U20 (born 2003–2005) (c.8.6k, 300m ascent) 12.30pm start: See course map ABCDEFGBCDEFGBCDEFGBA
- U17 (born 2006-2007) (c.5.8k, 200m ascent) 12.30pm start: See course map ABCDEFGBCDEFGBA
- U15 (born 2008-2009) (c.3k, 100m ascent) 12.30pm start: See course map ABCDEFGBA
- U13s (born 2010-2011) (c.3k, 100m ascent) 12.30pm start: See course map ABCDEFGBA
There will also be a (non-Championship) race (c.2.25k, 100m ascent) for runners born in 2012 or after, with those born in 2014 or later to be accompanied by an adult). Midday start. See course map ABCDEFDCBA
All races will have separate male and female categories. All are welcome, but Championship places are only available to members of Scottish Athletics.
Registration opens at 10.00am, at the Purin Hill car park (as in previous years), near East Lomond, (the car-park is one mile up the hill midway off the Falkland road A912). No entry fee, and a snack and drink will be provided for all runners. We have been lucky with the weather on race day before, but just in case, be sure to bring plenty of warm and waterproof clothing, as there is nowhere to hide. All races start and finish near the car park, and ascend East Lomond, with routes varying according to age. The courses are suitable for hill shoes or trainers, but not for spikes. All routes will be marked and marshalled.
