LAMMies get ready...
This weekend sees one of the UK’s best mountain marathons taking place in the Scottish Highlands. The Lowe Alpine Mountain Marathon takes place on 6 / 7 June, with the final location and course details to be released tomorrow (4 June) at 13.00hrs.
From the organisers:
We are into the final week now and what a treat is in store. Another fantastic new location in one of the classic mountain areas of the Scottish Highlands with a plentiful supply of Munros and Corbetts.
Our course planner is Angela Mudge, who has planned the LAMM courses on a number of occasions. Andy Spenceley, who planned our courses at Inchnadamph and Glenfinnan, is our controller.
All smiles at LAMM
