Hi folks                                            

Welcome to the Cateran Trail 55 Mile Ultra website. Hopefully you'll find all the info you need on the race within the website over on the right hand side in the menu pages but if not please feel free to email me.

2009 was the first year the race was held on this route and organised by my friend Dario Melaragni. Dario is no longer with us but i'd like to keep the race going so here goes, bear with me, and hopefully the race will be as much fun for you as it was for us all involved in 2009, 2010 & 2011.  

The 2012 race will be held on 19th May 2012, with a 7am start at Spittal of Glenshee Hotel, registration is in the Spittal of Glenshee Hotel from 5.30am and you have 15 hours to complete the race. 7450 ft of climbs which includes a climb over the Lairig Gate with a steep tough run down to the finish back at the hotel where you started.
