Black Rock Race - The Leaders Return
Yesterday Mags and I went to Kinghorn to see the annual 4.5 mile (7.2 km) Black Rocks Race. The race is held a low tide, when the distant Black Rocks are out of the water. The first race in 1987 had 68 finishers, whilst last years race had 730 finishers. This years entries, from all over Scotland, were expected to top 1000 runners (winning times around 22 minutes). The large field leaves central Kinghorn and runs downhill to Pettycur Bay. From there they run across the watery sand-flats, out to the Black Rocks, round the other side and then back across the sands, finishing with a gruelling uphill finish at The Ship Tavern. At the tavern (purveyors of fine beers and gourmet food) each finisher gets a free bottle of beer 1000 bottles of free premium beer from Williams Brothers, of Alloa. I’ve posted three or four shots that I found pleasing to the eye.
