Lock 27 Time Trial, Winter 2010-11

24th January 2011 Congratulations to all 12 runners tonight. Some excellent runs and good times. First home in the handicap stakes was Cat (21:48 actual) followed just 30s later by Pat and Caroline (26:22 actual) making the handicap a clean sweep for the ladies.

Lock 27 Time Trial, Summer 2010

12th July 2010 A great turnout for the Summer time trial at Lock 27. We had a beautiful evening and some good runs. Three new PBs (Robert, Alistair, Jangbu Sherpa). Expert handicapping meant everyone was back within a 2 minute slot with first back Ellen, just 37s off a PB after a long lay off

Toronto Zoo 10k 15 Oct

Lovely sunny day – so much better than the blizzard at my last race in TO. My time was inexplicably slow (no … you’re just crap Nigel) and I can’t say I noticed any animals at the time. It was however a good day out with gorgeous autumn colours, free photos at the finish, great

Lowe Alpine Mountain Marathon 2004

The LAMM 2004 was set in the hills on the south side of Glen Carron. JD partnered me (Nigel) on my first such event.

Location – Tweedsmuir Event – Sports Day & Fell Race After another morning of herding sheep in the mud (?!), the sun blazed through to greet the start of the fell race. 2 miles, 1000ft, several spectators, several dogs, numerous sheep, and 28 runners … 2 miles…little legs trying

David Marshall 5 mile trail race 23 Sept 06

Lovely sunny day and nice location for this 5 mile trail race – one in a series of four or five. Well organised although pricey and lacking prizes ! Course out and back along rolling forestry roads – race was won by a whippersnapper from RH Cambuslang with Nige rolling in for second place. Thanks

Kick off is at 10:30, meeting in the car

Westies Ben Nevis Successes

Further to some sparkling individual performances at The Ben in a high class field, an excellent turn out from Westies brought home a third team placing. Westies came in as 3rd team behind the local Ben experts (Lochaber in 2nd) and probably the strongest team in the UK just now (Bingley in 1st). This reflects
