A field of more than 300 competed in the fledgling North Highland Harriers 10k run on Sunday 16 May 2010 and it was Halkirk man Andrew Douglas who was first over the finishing line. Andrew 23 who lives in Edinburgh and works there as a trainee fund accountant, set up a new record in his debut appearance with a finishing time of 31 minutes, 51 seconds clipping three minutes, 38 seconds off last year's best time. The run took entrants in a circuit from the Castle of Mey, along the north coast and inland onto the main John O' Groats-Thurso road before returning to the castle. Weather was ideal for the event which was flagged off by Miss Anne Dunnett, Lord Lieutenant of Caithness.
