Twenty-seven runners took part over the 9.1 kilometres, 14 males and 13 females.
First across the line was Harley O'Hagan from New Zealand, in 57minutes 50 seconds, and first female Adrianna Skurosz crossing in fifth place overall, in 1h 1m 58s.
First local was Roland Neururer, in 1h 44s.
Unfortunately, four did not finish, after having got to the top, they couldn't find the track down to the finish, so they headed back to Wigmores.
Not knowing that they had gone back, a search party was sent out just before dark, covering both ends and trails.
Initially concerned as to where they had got to, they were relieved, along with family and friends, to find that they had safely walked out on their own and been picked up.
Still a good event and enjoyed by all participants, crazy as they are.
