Anyone done Linwood Parkrun? Is there changing facilities nearby? Thinking of it this weekend en route elsewhere?

Hi Ally, it's at a sport centre that I haven't been in but it looks likely that you could get changed in there.

I've been in and used the changing after at Linwood. About 200m from start/finish. I think you are officially meant to be using the centre but ... ;-). Just walk in past the desk, so many coming and going no-one is checking - actually if you asked if you could I would be extremely surprised if they said no.
You can also wander onto the synthetic track as well and do a few laps as well, gates open, no-one around.

Hill running royalty? Killian Journet and Emily Forsberg are excellent mountain runners. Royalty are pointless tabloid fodder doing very little at our expense ;-).
Oops, bang goes my chance of a knighthood.

I climbed Ben Lui today. A tad wet and breezy 😁

I got my leg stuck in a waist deep bog about 20 minutes into my walk up Ben Lui (and it's neighbour) a month or so back. Made the next 6 hours pretty miserable!

In between the sunshine though, zp ;-)?
I like Linwood too, fastest recent times were there. Did you use the changing, Ally-C?
(Last year at Linwood, after changing I ended up at 'spoons in Paisley* for breakfast (after looking at the Linwood café menu and comparing what I'd get for my money) then cycled to Kilbirnie and back along the old railway. Parkrun tourism tourism. I was buckled by the end, mind.)
*as will over 1000 runners tomorrow.
