FitterStu Official time 26:33. However... I parked and got changed at my office before running down towards the start. Just at the bridge, I realised I had left the barcode in the car. I ran back, into the office to get my car keys then drove down to the nearest car park. By this time, it had started, though. So I ran straight through the start and aimed at overtaking people. I've estimate my time at 24:55. It was very ice so there was probably a bit to come off this on a better day. Unaffiliated 23:12 24:48 26:33 53.33

About this parkrun

Flat and fast, out and back with a loop at the far end. Tarmac all the way, along the shore of a big pond. Plenty parking at start and a cafe.

Flat out and back course next to a Loch in Strathclyde Country Park. Close to M74 with easy parking. few potholes to look out for but good picturesque course with supportive friendly marshalls.

lovely wee run. in a park.

flat and pretty. No wind at all when I was there; not sure what they're all whinging about ;)

Fast and flat out and back. (Not the most original review!) Definite PB potential.

Flat and fast out and back course. Good for PBs - unless the wind is blowing, then it can be a bit of a struggle coming home.

Good fast out and back course can be windy as its open along the side of the loch

Fast flat lollipop shaped out and back beside a loch. Can be difficult if windy.

Fast and flat for PB. Guess I was lucky, no wind, and it's been recently resurfaced and was dry, bright and cool! Perfect. Lovely setting. I parked wrong side, nice 1.8 mile warm up n cool down! Great to watch uni rowers from boat house cafe. :-) G

Don't be deceived by the flat nature of strathy, as it invariably has s sting in the tail in the form of a stiff headwind in the 1k home straight which has ruined many a PB. However great out and back course and a friendly bunch. My first and favourite.
