If anyone has to drop out please let me know asap so a reserve can be allocated their place. The cost for the weekend is £43 which will include a communal meal on Saturday evening. Payment should be made to the club account by the end of November to secure your place. Use reference Ballachulish25 with the payment.

Cheers!

An update to the Skye Trip:

All 20 places in the hut have been confirmed and the deposits paid. Club members with a guaranteed space in the hut are as follows:

Wes H, Rose M, Claire A, and Sara S are planning to camp and will pay their own way at their chosen campsite. Camping is not allowed at the hut. The link to the nearest Glenbrittle campsite is https://www.dunvegancastle.com/glenbrittle/campsite/ . Note that the weather can be a tad inhospitable so an appropriate tent that can tolerate adverse (windy) conditions is highly recommended.

If anyone has to drop out please let me know as soon as possible so a reserve can be offered the place. The reserves for a place in the hut in order are:

Dan C
Ed H
David Cu
Beth C
Max P
Gavin M
Sara S
Alex D

The remaining balance of £44 for the trip is to be paid to the club account by the end of January 2025. There is likely to be a group communal meal on one of the evenings so an additional contribution of cash may be levied to cover the cost. I will post a reminder as well as more information nearer the time. Any questions? Please get in touch.

Cheers!

I’ve booked accommodation for Friday and Saturday nights, the 15th to 17th November at the Idwal Cottage YHA. We have six beds available and at the moment there are five of us going. Me, Lee, Beth, Ewart and Max. All of us are intending to run on Saturday morning, however, we are also expecting to climb and walk in the local area on Friday and Sunday.

The sixth bed is up for grabs if anyone would like to join us, whether to run or not. The cost will be £30 if we use all six beds. Food, entertainment and ice-bath for the runners is yet to be organised but if you’re interested in coming along get in touch asap, it’s first come first served.

Cheers!
