Yesterday was the first day of the Ultra Marathon with a start on Islay. Conditions were pretty good from what I’ve heard. Today is day two, again on Islay but the weather has broken down and it will be a tough day for many people. Here is the route for today: Bunnahabhain to Feolin via Rhuval. Killinallan, Craigens and West Carrabus. Then Knockdonn, Loch Skerrols, Scarrabus, Balole, Loch Finlaggan and down to Port Askaig to camp across at Feolin on Jura. Good Luck to everyone!!

Below a video from day 1 of the 2008 Race. I hope to receive some images tonight from a friend on Islay. If anyone else wants to share their images of this years race please send me an email. Thanks very much!
