Huge thank you to @GreenerMiles for putting on a spectacular event, that's still going!! That's what's great about BYUs you never know when the fun will stop!
Lap 7 is under way with 7 DNFs so far including last year’s winner James, who’s retired with an ankle injury. Meanwhile there’s some shameless advertising for the @BYUtwatt 😁

Busy weekend away. Outdoor first aid course in Bridge of Allan Sat & Sun. Managed to squeeze in lap counting & Marquee dismantling at ACP in Perth. #loveultras #runningfamily @yhrfpod

Sad to announce an inforced change of location for Orkney BYU. "Twatt" caused too much offence. When talk of the course being too "moist" and runners trying to "keep it up in Twatt, for as long as possible" hit the local press, we were told change location or cancel! 😢
