Good to remember that there are some sports that women beat men at - endurance and long distance running being one!

A great achievement, well done to Jamie Aarons.

Absolutely. I feel somehow invigorated and strengthened even as I sit here on my arse drinking coffee.

I only use 'woman' for women. 😊

I was a bit worried when I saw the headline but yes a real achievement. My SIL's brother has climbed all the munros - over a period of many years - so I am extra impressed by Jamie's achievement.

Amazing, I admit I saw the title and thought the worst.
