Sardinia Trail Race

Jo and Iain Wallace combined a holiday in Sardinia with running the Sardinia Trail Race, a route approximately 100km long with 5,000 metres of ascent.

The three stage event was made up of: Day one contained 28 km with 980 metres of ascent, day two had 42km with 1700m of ascent and finally day three 27km with 1215m of ascent.

Conditions were hot, and the terrain was technical but very beautiful, taking in the highest mountain in Sardinia and finishing along the coast.

Iain was 9th overall and first male in the over 55’s in 14 hours 38 minutes, while Jo, having overcome 6 weeks of injury, was 13th overall, 4th lady and 1st female over 50 in a total time of 15 hours 38 minutes.
