The Ramsay Round is a long distance fell running challenge near Fort William, Scotland. The route is a circuit of 58 miles, taking in 24 summits with a total climb of around 28,500 feet. Ben Nevis, Great Britain's highest peak, is included in the route along with 22 other Munros. Originally, all 24 summits on the Ramsay Round were Munros, but Sgorr an Iubhair was declassified as a Munro in 1997. The route was devised by Charlie Ramsay as an extension to an existing 24-hour walking route, and first completed by Ramsay on 9 July 1978. Charlie's completion created Scotland's Classic Mountain Marathon. The aim is for participants to complete the route, on foot, within 24 hours. Runners must start and finish at the Glen Nevis Youth Hostel, and may run the route in either a clockwise or anticlockwise direction. Until June 2015, the fastest time recorded was that of Adrian Belton from Baslow in Derbyshire. He recorded a time of 18 hours 23 mins. On 12 June 2015, this record was broken by Jez Bragg with a new time of 18 hours 12 minutes. On 5 July 2015, the record was lowered again, this time by Jon Ascroft in a time of 16 hours 59 minutes. The fastest ladies time is that of Nicky Spinks, on 31 May 2014 she recorded a time of 19hrs39 for a clockwise round. This is only bettered by that of Jon Ascroft, Jez Bragg and Adrian Belton, these are the only times under 20 hours. == Route == This is the original, anticlockwise route followed by Charlie Ramsay. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ramsay Round」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
