Xmas Handicap 2013

Here are some photos of the Pirates, Dogs, Santas, Dath Vaders, Native Americans, Scrooges, Fairies, Teuchters, Vulcans, Dusky Maidens, Lance Armstrongs,  and others who were lured out by the sun and cruelly treated to a cold and blustery…

Chatelherault Night Run

Half a dozen Westies made the brave journey out of Glasgow into the wilds of Lanarkshire - Dawn, Carina, Elizabeth, Jamie, Christopher and Marc (well he's really a southsider!). We enjoyed a lovely, mild meander round  the trails of Chatelherault…

Sunday Run: Tannoch – Dumgoyne -Strathblane

The four of us - Karine, Cameron, Stanley and myself - met up at Loch Tannoch on clear and frosty Sunday morning. When we set off at 10 there was still plenty of icy patches, but that was soon going change. Marvelously warm sunshine provided…

Mugdock Night Run

A good dozen or so of us enjoyed a lovely dark 7 mile trot round Mugdock. I managed to lead everyone round John Hutchinson's new route without losing anyone or ourselves. The route mixed the WHW, Mugdock muddy trails, a bit of road and a few…

Cort Ma Law Night Run

A great wee group of us enjoyed a romp through the mud and bog of the Campsies last night. The foul weather disappeared as we set off and we had a clear night and following wind all the way out to the trig point. It was a bit colder and breezier…

The Dark Side of Dumgoyne

Corrie of Balglass

Thanks to the dozen or so who turned up for the run around Corrie of Balglass last night. The time in the hills was lovely, the company great and the banter round the kitchen table highly entertaining. We hope to make this an annual event, so…

A humid evening up Cort ma Law

Cam, Christine, Craig, Colin, Jen, Jill, John H, JQ and Pauls enjoyed a warm evening running up Cort ma Law on Wednesday, with the occasional pause to enjoy the view.

It was one of those occasions that come along so rarely that they cannot help but be special.  Start with a classic run up Dumgoyne to Earl's Seat and back, add in a terrestrial and celestial alignment of crisp, clear weather and a moon…

Famous Five Frolic

Lovely evening for a frolic with the famous five....Jamie, JD, JQ, Elizabeth and Paula. We set off from Auchinstarry along the trail (not the canal for a change). The stars were out and the evening was ideal for running. We went over Barr Hill…
