Jimmy Irvine Bella 10K

The first of my two trips to Bellahouston Park this weekend. Really wasn't sure what to expect this morning. On the one hand the course was flat, I felt fit & strong and I was hoping for a good time. On the other hand injury had meant I…

Mudbath at Lauder

I was late finding out about the Borders XC series last year and so missed this one. I was looking forward to giving it a go as I’d enjoyed the 2 races that I did manage to do in the 11/12 series. It was gloriously sunny with no wind.…

OMM 2012

"I want to die." Seeing as it was only midday Friday and we were still in Glasgow, this was less than encouraging. Matt, my partner for the weekend, cut a forlorn figure slumped in the corner of a Partick tavern looking slightly dazed having…
