Finished 3rd AG (4th overall) at the @durtyevents Craggy Island XL Triathlon on Saturday! My annual dose of #SwimBikeRun! Brilliant event and supported awesomely by local @ObanMRT

@scottcarlinpt Thanks! Ex-full time athlete, >10yrs of 10-15 hours a week but only running past 7-yrs. Running consistently has been the difficult part. Really enjoy your threads

[Dr Max Holloway @maxhollo]

@staceholloway @scottcarlinpt Understand things are about to change a lot! 😂

[Dr Max Holloway @maxhollo]

Beautiful light over Dalmally this morning, but that might have been the last day for shorts on the summits this year - windchill definitely made it feel like autumn 🏃‍♂️ 🏃

Team responded to a casualty high on Ben Cruachan last night with multiple fractures following a fall. Team located casualty and packaged and stretched them below the cloud level and winched onboard Coastguard helicopter Rescue 199 just as light was failing.

A running pal returned north this weekend and motivated a traverse of Glencoe from west to east (running away from the thunder!) - Decided we probably aren’t as fit as we used to be 🥵

And finally into the third trimester ❤️ @maxhollo

Great to be back in the Ballachulish hills after a few months restricted to lower ground

[Dr Stacey McGowan Holloway @staceholloway]

Very proud of @maxhollo who finished the Jura Fell Race in 4hr13 & just 6 days after winning the all rounders category in the three islands peaks race. (All while I mainly ate ice cream).

@ranmackay Looks like the Lismore ferry? Nice view of Garbh Bheinn!

[Dr Max Holloway @maxhollo]

And a massive thank you to @staceholloway who gave me a lift home from Balloch after all the trains home to Oban were cancelled (and arrived with three lunch boxes packed with food!) 🙏

[Dr Max Holloway @maxhollo]

What an awesome weekend racing the @SIPeaksRace with an amazing bunch of people! Finished 11th overall and 🥇 All Rounders after 45 hours of sailing and running up hills ⛰ 🏃‍♂️ ⛵️

[Dr Stacey McGowan Holloway @staceholloway]
