Giggleswick School Head of Physics, Dr Allison, after the Montane Winter Spine Sprint
AT the end of January, Giggleswick School Head of Physics, Dr Allison, took on one of Britain’s Most Brutal endurance races - The Montane Winter Spine Sprint.
It’s a non-stop, 46-mile race along the most iconic and demanding trail in Britain: the Pennine Way.
Dr Allison secured an extraordinary 1st place, breaking records by a staggering 45 minutes, finishing in a time of 07:28:09.
Physically and psychologically demanding, it requires self-sufficiency and skill, setting it apart from the rest. Starting in Edale, Derbyshire, with an 18-hour time limit to reach Hebden Bridge, it's an epic experience, immersing runners in the full intensity and ferocity of the British winter.
