Lolloping Over The Longmynd
Also on Saturday 5 October and into the wee hours of the following day, another Ultra event took place when Tim Joynson tackled The Longmynd Hike 50 mile challenge, a figure-of-eight route over the rugged countryside of South Shropshire and the Welsh Marches, with about 8,000 feet of climbing covering eight summits. The object is to complete the course in under 24 hours, which Tim easily did, returning to complete the course in 11 hours 50 minutes and claim 18th position overall, which was 2 hours quicker than last year.” (see the photo)
