Cape Wrath is the most northwesterly point in mainland Great Britain. It was recently the finishing point of a grueling 400-kilometer (248.5-mile) footrace that takes place over eight days. I mention this because during our vacation to Scotland this past May and June, Katherine and I met a young man (Alex Reily) who had just finished the race. (He placed 14th of 59 finishers.) He was seated by us in a ScotRail station. We had a wonderful talk about the race, the landscape, his home (England), and so on. If you watch the video in this website, you'll see what the race is like.
