    A Scottish lad that won Celtman last year. He came 6th in his debut this year - Graeme Stewart.

    cheers PG, had to wait till i was back in europe to get to watch it but it's passed some time in the aer lingus lounge in heathrow while i pass the 4 hour layover

    he's a bit of a marketing machine, with all the personalised gear, but fair play to him.

    sign of how tough that race is, guy as fit as him walking up that hill. makes you wonder if the bucket list race a lot see it as is a step too far.

    260 out of 1900 got in. take out those guaranteed entry and the odds say you haven't a hope of getting in anyway..

    This years video here

    One thing Copenhagen taught me this year is that I am nowhere near ready for an event like this

    Great clip. I don't normally bang on about past races I have done, but watching that brings a lump to my throat. I must write a race report of that journey even just for me. The scenery is just beautiful isn't it. I agree with the girl at the start the crew of characters on the boat on the way out were the toughest, fittest looking bunch I have ever seen in one place. They also seemed to have the air of mental toughness which was quite .inspiring / nerve racking. Anyway best, hardest day of my sporting life.
