Cuillin Round record 13h4m13s
Solo and unsupported 

Brilliant and unforgettable day out on this round of 60 peaks in the Black and Red Cuillin - route created by Rob Woodall in 1999 and rekindled by James Gibson last year. 

I started and finished from a tent at the base of the South Ridge of Bla Bheinn. Damp in places initially requiring care, until the afternoon sun dried everything off. My lines on the main Cuillin traverse not quite as slick as on my 2013 record but not bad (and slightly different route anyway).

Saw a fox in An Glas-choire and got buzzed by coastguard helicopter (training?) on beautiful Marsco. Finishing on Clach Glas and Bla Bheinn scrambling in golden evening light was a dream (except the trashed legs)
