Forfar multi terrain half marathon?
Hi there,
has anyone done this before? I am feeling very tempted - just not quite sure due to the comments on the entry form. "Arduous terrain; not for novices; bring food rations and a map". Actually sounds really good, but also a little bit as if one might get lost in the middle of the wilderness and potentially get eaten by a bear. Wouldn't exactly call myself a novice with various half-marathons and a marathon under my belt, but somehow it sounds a bit scary (which, on the other hand, is exactly the attraction). Anyone with any experience of previous events or knowledge of the route??? Thanks!

I have signed up for this. The route is mostly gently undulating on roads/tracks, BUT there is a 100m climb (path) at about mile 10. I had a look yesterday ..doesn' t look hideously steep, and you get a great view of the Angus Glens at the top!
