Glen ChallengeSaturday 25th August 2012 This challenge provides a fine opportunity for all Glen folk, their friends and also tourists in the area to enjoy a fine walk or run down our scenic Glen. The route follows along quiet tracks, through the farms and forest on the south side of the Glen with beautiful views of the homesteads on the north face which are not visible from the main road. The route is steeped in ancient history from the time the Norse warrior Monie was defeated in a battle near Craigmonie and escaped along this very route to Corrimony where his fate was ultimately sealed. However the spirit of the Viking Prince lives on in our midst in the locations in the Glen which bear his name. This impending Challenge has already attracted considerable interest from all age groups and a bumper entry is expected. These challenges are basically great fun as participants walk or run at their own comfortable pace. Camaraderie along the route is always the essence of these challenges and provides the energy for folk to progress along a beautiful route without realising that they are making such good progress. Many in the Glen along with their friends already know the route from their casual walks or runs in their leisure time. Note: The information below refers to 2011 event.
