Last weekend I competed in the @scottishpeaks.bsky.social race and it was an epic adventure. I've drafted a race report to document what was a huge personal challenge. It's part reflection / part lessons learned in case we’re mad enough to try it again (spoiler: we are) medium.com/@adam.coulso...

@scottishpeaks.bsky.social was epic. Starting in Oban on Friday we ran then sailed to Mull where we summited Ben More. We then sailed to Jura, ran the Paps, before taking on a challenging sea leg around the Mull of Kintyre. We landed on Arran and summited Goatfell, sailing to finish at Troon. Phew!

We don't have the Wednesday evening blues because we're in Oban, getting #sipr25 reg ready for you tomorrow! Our island teams are starting to head out as well, and we see lots of familiar looking boats... only be two more days to go.

They say 1 in 2 people get #cancer, but for my family it was two. My dad died aged 54 from pancreatic cancer, then we lost my mam to bowel cancer aged 63. Next weekend we'll race @scottishpeaks.bsky.social to fundraise for @worldwidecancer.bsky.social #sipr25 www.justgiving.com/team/caol-il...
