12/6/21 Cairncastle Classic Fell Race

Saturday saw four well-prepared County Antrim Harriers swap road shoes for trail shoes to take part in the 2nd Annual Cairncastle Classic Fell Race hosted by East Coast AC. 

The weather was perfect and the ground firm, for the tough and testing 10 mile route (with 2,200ft of ascent) along roads, farm tracks, and fell from Cairncastle over the Sallagh Braes and back to Cairncastle. 

The Harriers, David Hamill, Stuart Gowan’s, Louise Smart and Claire Oliphant gave superb performances, negotiating all the stiles, and appreciating the stunning skyline and coastline, to finish strong!
