Fjool Posted August 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 Today's the day! Shetland's first end-to-end in under 24 hours. Listen on Radio Shetland this afternoon, with a longer piece in the evening. Regular updates via Twitter (@ShetlandHillRun) and the website.

Fjool Posted August 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 They're doing well. On target (1st section complete in 2h24m) and after a 10 minute break are now en route to Quarff. It's dark now though, so head-torches are required. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marooned in Maywick Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Any update for those not members of the Twitterati? Edit - Whoops - didn't notice the mention of the website...
