| You have been warned! |
We discovered there was a to be a marathon while returning from Falls of Foyers. The road had signs notifying drivers of road closures around Loch Ness on Sunday morning while the runners were out. What we didn't realize the finish line was in Inverness until we saw the runners coming down one side of the River Ness in town. There were only a couple of miles to go. We, of course, had to cheer on the runners.
Not everyone ran in a kilt or "traditional" dress, but they were the ones which caught our camera's attention. The lass in the purple shoes and big smile reminded us of our daughter, who is an avid runner.

| We've never seen a marathon that ran by a castle, or a Loch for that matter! |
I stopped this runner as he was leaving, to ask if I could take a picture of him with his medal. You can tell by his smiling face, the answer was a resounding, YES! If you enlarge his picture, you can see Nessie on the medal.
All that clapping and yelling encouragement makes one thirsty. Off to a pub for a couple of brews. Ahh, Scotland!
