SH, only avoided through carefully thought out 'scaffolding' and copious amounts of lycra!

Actually, have got a black eye at the moment (first ever!) due to my other sporting (I use the term loosely) interest as a fighting woman. Has been a bit difficult to explain at work. It's now an attractive shade of yellow.

Good luck for tomorrow! Weather is looking much better than expected - just the chance of a wee coolong shower - ideal!

Enjoyed the race even though it wasn't the most scenic. Though it was very well
organised and I got a pb of 2hrs 6min

Agree GG, it was well organised. No PB for me, still suffering from hay fever and had been at a (very sober) birthday 'do' the night before, but enjoyed it.

Well, I am intending to. Will need to get my lardy a*** into gear and up my mileage a bit though! Away to Espana next week then four weeks off work when come back - ideal opportunity! People of Uddy beware! You are doing it, aren't you?

I thought it was really well organised and I thoroughly enjoyed it - especially running round the track at the end - first time on a track EVER for me! No PB, but I have been really tired and training has been sporadic since Edin mara. Need to get some faster miles into the legs before I race again.

Weather window was really fortunate - that was the first race this year I have done that it didn't rain (or sleet, or snow, or be windy!).

Yes, I'm on holiday first 2 weeks in July, when I come back it will give me 7 weeks to the race........

What time you planning.?

Oh, SH, how cruel you are, now I have to admit publicly how sloooooooow I really am!

On Sunday at EK, the guy who won the 1/2 (I can only gaze in awe and admiration!) passed by me at 8k. I had to ask one of the policemen if I was actually still moving, and in the right direction. He said I was doing OK, but he was laughing.

(Shudders as horrible memory of Cambuslang at Hogmanay also resurfaces)

Anyway, did Glasgow 1/2 two years ago in about 2.20, would be happy to be thereabouts again.

And you? Shouldn't we be on some other thread about this - think there was one for GSR?

Second time doing this race and as before it was a well run event - congrats to the race team.
