I had been scheduled to take part in 2020, but the race didn’t happen for the last two years due to Covid. All was going well until I (ironically!) caught Covid at the start of what should have been my biggest block of training. I didn’t run at all for about ten days, and it took me another couple of weeks to feel normal again. It turned out surprisingly OK and was actually a great event, so the Fling was on! I really wasn’t sure what to do, so at the beginning of April I took part in the It’s Grim Up North Roche Abbey Marathon as my longest run before the Fling, and I told myself if I got through that I’d go to Scotland. Steve and I travelled up to Scotland last Friday, as the race was taking place on the Saturday.

Free long term parking was available for participants at the local rugby club, just ten minutes’ walk from the start, so we parked our motorhome there for the night.

After a carb-loading tea from the local chippy, registration took place at a nearby pub. All runners had been asked to provide evidence of a negative lateral flow test taken that day, which had to be presented before registration was allowed. We were then issued with a race number, a timing ‘dibber’ and a wristband. It’s an early start for this event – 6 am – so we tried to get an early night but for some reason I was paranoid about oversleeping, so didn’t actually get much sleep at all! The alarm went off at 4:15, and it felt bizarre to be applying sun lotion in the dark and cold, but the forecast was set to be warm and sunny. The race follows the first half of the West Highland Way, so covers 53 miles from Milngavie (just outside Glasgow) to Tyndrum with 2,330m of ascent. I knew that the first quarter or so would be pretty runnable, then the hard work would start after that. I guessed I wouldn’t be at my best after missing a few weeks of training through Covid, but was happy to give it my best shot.
Steve’s plan was to drive to the finish at Tyndrum, go gravelling and wait for me to arrive.

We set off in perfect running weather, bright but cool, bang on 6 am, complete with a piper to send us on our way.Capture The Flag Shooting: Capture the opponents’ flag while shooting and respawn player once they have died.Capture the Flag: Capture the opponents’ flag And respawn players once they have died.Ball: A team match where the object is to score a goal by pushing the ball zone into the goal zone.

With this in mind, let’s talk about movement. Your cycle turns in right angles, typically, and leaves a long wall behind it wherever it goes. Brakes are provided, but they are disabled on many servers. The closer you are to a player’s wall, the faster your cycle will accelerate. The rules are simple: you ride a light cycle (a kind of motorbike that can only turn 90 degrees at a time, leaves a wall behind and cannot be stopped) and have to avoid running into walls while at the same time you have to try to get your opponent to run into them.Īrmagetron Advanced can be played against AI opponents, against other humans over the network, or a mixture of both.Īrmagetron Advanced works on the unique concept that a cycle can only accelerate by riding on another player’s wall. If you ever wanted to take a try at one of those speed demons features in the movie, this is your chance.
