Active Outdoors
Features and routes from my Active Outdoors work for SPP Media
Getting the marathon buggy
Meg Davidson compares running the marathon to giving birth… after a while, the idea of doing it again doesn’t seem so bad!
Highland Cross
A 50-mile coast-to-coast duathlon in mid-summer
More to the Highland Cross than a race through the hills
The more times you do the Highland Cross, the more you understand the community behind this huge annual effort. Turning up on the day to run and cycle 50 miles across the Highlands is probably the easy bit – and certainly the most fun.
Loch Ness 360
Off-road loop and challenge events around Loch Ness
Loch Ness 360 loop will be an uphill challenge
There has been a lot of talk in the running and biking communities since the announcement of a new round Loch Ness challenge due to take place next year.
Scottish Cycling
Some of the cycle routes I've written for Scottish Cycling magazine (routes will be added here soon)
Caol runnings – the Great Glen Way on the Caledonian Canal at Fort William
In the shadow of Britain’s highest mountain, it seems somewhat incongruous to find a flat, family-friendly route where you can let the children loose to explore.
