Shoe-lace May 2011 3:34pm, 2 May 2011 6 posts	Quote Pin Shoe-lace OK, so a rural, relatively traffic free, low-key, reasonably priced, scenic marathon, not too far from Central Belt with a quality goody bag, at the right time of year (June maybe?) could have a place? Do we need anything else? How about the course? Does it need to be flat(ish). We're not too good at doing "flat" in Strathearn (Crieff/Comrie) so how about making it a tough one with plenty of hills? Would this attract or off-put?

Hope the wounds are healing (and see you at his house for dinner in a couple of weeks!)
