"Having been and orienteer for 5 years I took up fell running when I joined ShUOC. Both disciplines give me the freedom to explore places and views that many people don’t see. I think the support you get from everyone in ShUOC no matter your ability is what makes us a great club."

Secretary
Andrew MacDonald (Medicine)

"I used to do a lot of hill walking as a kid and I would see people running around the hills of the lakes and Scotland and I thought that looks pretty cool. So I started running more to try and get fitter so I could cover more ground in one go and see more of the hills in what limited time I have"
