Lorraine McCall Plans First Continuous Grahams Round

Starting in mid-April, Lorraine McCall is planning a four-month journey around Scotland's 231 Grahams. Nineteen years ago she completed the Munros as a continuous self-powered round, and a decade later linked the Corbetts in similar style. If successful, she would be the first person that we know of to complete a continuous Grahams round.
