Born in 1671 Rob Roy Macgregor was a strong fit man.
President Jim Macgregor is also a fit man and pushed through the 60 mile barrier in his quest to raise money for local charities. He was supported on his way by members of the Club setting off from Pitlochry to the inspiring sound of the pipes played by Dennis Hopper.
The 3 beneficiaries will be The St Andrews Preservation Trust's Pride of Place Awards in the Old Parliment Hall on the 19th September; St Andrews in Bloom, and the Botanic Gardens.
