The start in Morbegno

Top finishers at this year’s Snowdon Race have been invited to race under the Great Britain banner at this year’s Trofeo Vanoni to be held in Morbegno (Italy) next weekend (Oct 24-25). The historic race up Snowdon enabled a twinning of host village of Llanberis and Morbegno.

Race committee members will travel with the ‘GB team’ representing the Snowdon Race and will compete in the men’s relay and individual women’s races held on the Sunday.

The race hall of fame lists of all the athletes who have completed the course under 30mins. Looking down it must have been a good year for Kenny Stuart in 1985, as he won Snowdon Race (still holding that record to this day) and recorded a time of 29mins 15 sec in the Trofeo Vanoni Race, still good enough for 5th fastest almost 25 years later!
