Female ultra runner Jamie Aarons set an astonishing new record of just 31 days, 10 hours and 27 minutes for a round of all 282 Munros in Scotland. The 43-year-old is 12 hours and 35 minutes quicker than Donnie Campbell, who set the previous fastest time in 2020.
Aarons, 43, started her huge self-propelled feat – Jamie's Munro Challenge – to reach every Scottish mountain listed with a height of at least 3000ft (914.4m) on May 26 on Ben More, Isle of Mull. She finished on Ben Klibreck in Sutherland yesterday. The social worker ran the mountains and then cycled or kayaked in between.
