Apologies to all who have been unable to access the site recently! I've had some

difficulties with the router on the machine that I have the site on and since I

was ORDERED to close the entry forms within 48 hours, the site went down.

Dear Competitor, Helper or Sponsor
Yet another record breaking year for 70 Wild Miles Glencoe.

£85,000 has now been presented jointly to Cancer Research UK and CLIC (Cancer and Leukaemia in Childhood).

This amount has surprised everyone and certainly does justice to all the effort that you as a competitor, helper or sponsor have put into making this amount possible.
A million thanks for the part you played in helping us achieve this.

The money will go a long way in helping both these very deserving charities with their vital work.

There will be a slight change to 70 Wild Miles Glencoe 2005, set to take place on Saturday 11th June, CLIC will be handling all administration relating to this event.

If you were a helper, we hope that nothing will change from your point of view and that you will be able to continue with your valued support. There would be no 70 Wild Miles without you, that's for sure.

Since this all began in 1989 over £460,000 has been raised.

We sincerely hope that the fundraising total will continue to grow on an upward trend, and with your continued support and commitment, there is every chance it will.


Our Very Best Regards and Sincere Thanks

John, Gordon, Ray and Brian

Entry for the 2005 event has now closed.

But everyone is welcome to come along and enjoy the day with us.

 

Special mentions must go out to Fund-raising superstar Jimmy Smith and the marvellous team from the Cramond Boat Club, both of whom reached sums of over £12,000!

Thanks to Gordon Gooch we now have profiles of the cycle and run sections of the course here.

(Please don't let them put you off completely!)

Our extremely hard-working team of organisers, John/Ian, Gordon, Ray and Brian have decided that all these years of dedication to the cause have finally reached the point where the paperwork involved really requires more time than they can realistically justify, and they are to hand over the bureaucracy to the staff of the benefiting charity and content themselves with the more fundamental parts of running the event.

But don't think you can relax - They'll still be watching you!
