Good luck everyone that's taking Barry along tomorrow....
Barry, I made it round the 5k race okay and the foot is not too bad, it was hot though but at least it was a flat course, rain on here now, hopefully that means that it will be dry up North/West for you tomorrow!
morning all, just trying to find Barry's current position ...
A894 Jct to Scourie - do we know if this leg was completed yesterday as haven't heard anything concrete yet, however jillj64 said all was ready for Scourie to Rhiconich leg today so can I safely presume it was compelte and update the Barry tracker accordingly?
No.. from my understanding they will run from the A894 Jct today right through to Durness, ready for Frances to run to the Cape and back tomorrow morning.

I thought it was Friday there for a minute! Sorry! It will be run up to Richonich today, then to Durness tomorrow!
Just to clarify. Barry should be at Rhiconnich by now. Trish took him for the first 4.5 miles from the B869/A894 junction starting at 10:30 and then David and Gita whizzed him through to Scourie by just after 12:00. JillJ then headed of to Laxford Bridge almost immediately where she was due to meet up with Malcolm B-J who should have reached Rhiconnich by now. I've texted Jill to ask her to confirm that Barry is safely at Rhiconnich ready for his climb over Gualin and on to Durness tomorrow and the heroic trip out to Cape Wrath and back with Frances on Saturday. Sorry no pictures - the battery on Peter's camera died. Nice conditions for running today - cool, grey, occasional spot of rain.
Had a great run from Scourie to Laxford Bridge, where Malcolm took over & yes Barry got to Rhiconich safely & I will be looking after him (with the help of my daughter who is really excited about meeting Barry!) We will leave Rhiconich around 10.30 am tomorrow where myself, Karen & Kevan Price & Alistair Morrison will complete the leg to the ferry. I have a few photo's which I will try to put on!!
