Welcome to Fetch Shoelace, surely you know that Doctor Phil is organising his own marathon up your way?

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? |

Santababy, the good Doctor sometimes will listen to a bit of advice from his brother-in-law - especially with 5 pages of Fetchie-comments to back him up! btw he pointed you out to me on Saturday, but you were so covered in bandages I'm not sure I'd recognize you again! Hope the wounds are healing (and see you at his house for dinner in a couple of weeks!)

Sounds braw to me!! I have wonderd a few times why marathons mostly seem to be spring and autumn, so a summer central belt mara would be just dandy in my book. (Just need to get fit enough to train regular now)
