Chatelherault Handicap Trail Race
Captain Chris' idea of a race in the lovely Chatelherault Country Park near Hamilton turned out to be a cracker of a race and sure to be a permanent fixture in the Westies schedule. The weather was perfect, the trail dry and the marking of the course absolutely superb (though Muffy and David Riach may disagree!). There must have been about 20 of us made the journey south of the Clyde on a lovely summer's evening out to the refurbished former Duke of Hamilton's hunting lodge. First off was Fiona followed by a stream of Westies as ordered by Charlie. First back and winner of the "Champion " beer prize was Helen; Chris ran the fastest time; Catriona was fastest woman and Pat claimed the sought after coconut for last finisher and a select few also got some jammy donuts. Thanks to Charlie for the handicaps and timing and Drew for his sawdust and to everyone else for turning up and giving it their best.

Nice touch from the "entertainments" convenor - road directions on how to spend an hour in M74 tailbacks. Ideal preparation for the race - NOT!
