Balloch to Clydebank Half-Marathon 2015
Well that's a new one - a race that went better than I expected.
I'd been getting some decent training in recently, but an unexpected trip North at the end of the week, a couple of late nights/early starts and a fair few hours slumped…
Lancaster half marathon
Results
Lancaster half marathon and I have a history. I had a disastrous run there last year which pulled me up short and put an end to my idea I need not train to race. So, I came to settle the score on a wintry, windy, overcast morning, but…
Helensburgh Half Marathon
Mibee a mid life crisis or mibee inspired by all the athletic goings on down in London but last night I realised I hadn't run a half marathon on the road since 2007. I knew the Helensburgh Half was on this morning and a quick check indicated…
Glen Clova Half Marathon
This weekend I ran a race. But I didn’t race a race. I just ran it for the sheer enjoyment of running! Or at least that was my intention. This half marathon isn’t in the p.b. range, so why did I bother traipsing a 260 mile round…

Alloa Half Marathon

Scottish Vets Half Marathon
4th October 2009
I'd never really taken part in any of the Scottish Masters events, so I thought I'd give their Half Marathon a bash.
The race starts at Clydebank, and heads out along the canal towpath for 6.5 miles before turning. Then once…
Great Scottish Run Half Marathon
6th September 2009Enjoyable jaunt around Glasgow, with another record entry (around 20,000 for all events). Took me around 1 minute to even get to the start line! The inevitable slow first mile followed until I could get moving after the Kingston,…
