The ScottishAthletics junior hill running league (U13-U17) got off to a sunny and succesfull start on the edge of Ochill Hills overlooking Stirling. 95 youngsters completed in the 5 races, a few down on last year although this year had no U20 category this year.

There was a good split of numbers and genders across all age groups. Each age group went progressively higher up the hill. The under 17s getting the privilege to run to the very top of Dumyat at 418m high. The new Under 15s course did go over a top at just in front of Dumyat so they still got the feeling of racing to the top of a hill. Most of the youngsters came back smiling and some of the local walkers commented on how good it was to see them all out having a great time running on the hill.

The course presented some challenges in the planning stage due to recent planting tree work and a new deer fence. We worked with land owners Edinburgh University to adapt the courses and they were very accommodating throughout the process. It will be interesting to see the trees grow over future years around the course. Additional thanks also to landowners Future Forest Company.

Many thanks to all the volunteers who helped make it happen, ProTay for providing an excellent entry and timing system and Michael Philp Photos for the images from the hill. Full gallery of images here
