  • @andy_k @skinny I think Highland Trail will continue to require qualification. It's a brutally hard route, 550 miles, and probably 50 miles of rocky/slippy/boggy hike-a-bike. Loads of people blow their Achilles from all the walking and climbing over rocks with the bike.

    I've qualified serveral times over now, and it still scares me! I am doing it in 2016 though. To me it seems more of an unknown than Tour Divide was.

  • I saw one HT550 finisher I know also helping out at the start of the Ditchling Devil 200km Audax this year and was still hobbling around almost 2 weeks after (he finished HT550 in just over 7 days I think).

    There's only one way to find out how it'll affect you. Do it!
