ClaireT Not run this kind of distance since January so wasn't expecting to break any records. Focussed on keeping a steady pace and some energies in reserve for the latter stages and it paid off. Pleased to get round the course in a semi-decent time and to finish 2nd lady was a bonus. Really hot and sunny today which suits me fine. Nice swim afterwards and good crack with fellow Fetchies and friends. Victoria Park - City of Glasgow AC, Scottish Veteran Harriers Club 1:23:34 1:28:53 1:28:53 72.85
connelld As I wasn't 100% motivated, I decided to run with Garmin on but not to look at it during race. Ran with Bodo for first 6-7 miles as he seemed to handling the bits well that I was struggling with. However he seemed to get more powerful and I struggled to keep with him. I passed Mark Grierson on a bit he was struggling on and kept Bodo and Robert Rogerson in sight but never really closed the gap until the end on Robert as he was suffering from injury. I tried 1 last ditch attempt to be him at the end but there was a good 4 seconds between us. Up in front was Sunbed Athlete with a 3 minute gap between him and Stuart Gibson. Stuart also had 3 minute gap between him and 3rd place Grant Wilkie. Hot conditions but a good day. Kilmarnock Harriers & AC, Scottish Veteran Harriers Club 1:17:24 1:21:27 1:22:14 71.13
Girvan Ruth Found this really hard going. Legs just struggled to get up the hills and the down hills never seemed very long. On the positive side though I met a few Fetchies and the boys from Troon Tortoises. Girvan AAC 1:49:45 1:57:46 2:04:30 53.20
