CurraNZ ambassador Kim Collison has cemented his place in ultra-running history with a stunning victory in the Winter Spine Race, finishing in the third-fastest time ever—82 hours, 36 minutes.
The 268-mile race, regarded as Britain’s most brutal, follows the Pennine Way from the Peak District to Kirk Yetholm on the English-Scottish border, in the depths of the British winter.
Despite treacherous snow and subzero conditions, Collison led from start to finish, navigating treacherous terrain and battling some of the harshest weather conditions the race has seen in years.
“It was an epic 3.5 days on the Pennine Way,” Collison said. “But held in the toughest conditions I have seen in the four attempts. I was so happy to have finally nailed the race this time.”
