| we are officially in for the Lowe Alpine Mountain Marathon in the Scottish Highlands...the secret location is listed as 3 hours North of Glasgow and 2 hours from Inverness...after some fooling around with Mapquest I figure that would put us near Arisaig, Scotland....about 30 miles west of Fort Williams and Ben Nevis....that is my best guess but it makes sense...looks like a great area to explore the Scottish Highlands for this two day, 35K total, Mountain Orienteering event...
Just looked up my Moms maiden name, Darragh, on the internet only to find out that it is likely a gaelic sur name and that my ancestors could be from Scotland (always thought it was Irish)...I might be going back to my roots... : ) |
