🚴♀️🏃♀️ Highland Cross! 🏃♀️🚴♀️![]()

Massive congratulations to Lizzie and Mary, two of our own, who took on the Highland Cross last weekend, a gruelling 50-mile duathlon across the Highlands, made even tougher by scorching heat, strong headwinds, and a brutal hill just 5km into the run. 💪![]()

With water sprinklers at aid stations and no midgies in sight, it "felt more like racing abroad than the Highlands!" Despite cramp and relentless sun, these two powered through with grit, teamwork and a good dose of 'type 2 fun'.![]()

Well done to both from all at Ochils Mountain Rescue!![]()
