Documentary: The Inaugural Pan Celtic Race 2019
On July 7th 2019, 84 riders set out from Inverness to race across three Celtic nations – Scotland, Ireland and Wales – in the inaugural edition of the Pan Celtic Race. This was the first race in a planned five-year Race Series which will take riders on roads less travelled, tracing ancient paths and eventually visiting each of the six modern day Celtic nations (also including Cornwall, Isle of Man and Brittany).
They had travelled from across the globe to take part. Little did they know what was in store for them as they signed on for the longest, ultra-endurance in the British Isles. Strong winds, biblical rain, wilderness and high mountain passes awaited them. Arriving as strangers, firms bond of rivalry and friendships were forged. Once started, the clock wouldn’t stop until they either arrive at the finish or withdraw.
This is their story.
