AlanO Hooooorendous race. Caught the cold in the week running into it which was a bummer as I had trained for 2 months for this race. Batteries totally flat and found over 100 runners pass me in the first 2 laps. Beaten by guys I normally beat by minutes. Rallied a wee bit in the last lap and actually overtook 6 people. Finished up the day lying on my sofa shivering with a jacket on. The sacrifices you make for your running club. Splits (approx) - 15.50, 16.50, 16.44. Greenock Glenpark Harriers 49:15 49:15 49:15 66.96
Baza Watch time is 46:52, really enjoyed it. Good 1st two laps, but faded at start of the 3rd, made up for it at the finish. THink i was 175 over all. Carnegie Harriers 46:52 46:52 46:52 68.57
bedlam_g Very pleased with my run over 3 minutes quicker than last year, felt strong and stayed consistent for the 3 laps. Laps 14.40 14.42 14.48. Bellahouston Road Runners, Cumbernauld AAC, Kilmarnock Harriers & AC, Scottish Veteran Harriers Club 43:24 44:12 44:12 73.74
Boab Watch time for now. Boy do I hate XC. Started off way to fast and developed a stitch on the second lap. Still 2 minutes quicker than last year, with the added climb so happy about that. Give me a flat hard road any day though!!!! Unaffiliated 42:09 42:09 42:09 76.96

Hamsterwheel First time at this race or in any race with this size of feild so the start was fun trying to get some space to run but after that it was just a hard slog but happy enough at my time. Girvan AAC 50:03 50:03 52:00 50:03 64.36
hannkies Felt I ran fairly decent, if anything I had a bit left at the end. Never, ever going to be great at Cross Country but this was one of my better ones and I'm probably getting close to decent shape ahead of the Road Racing season. Without a shadow of a doubt my favourite XC course, and as ever the race was organised superbly. Finished 107th. Kilmarnock Harriers & AC, Scottish Veteran Harriers Club 44:09 44:09 44:09 75.22
