Hello folks, this is my first post here. This is me crossing the line on the Loch Ness Marathon. Managed a sub 4 (3.55) Not bad for a 60 year old!
Hoping to connect with runners. #running
Completing the Bennachie Hill Race in North-East Scotland #running
Very tough trail race yesterday. Delighted to get third place in my age category. #running
Last year was mainly spent bashing out road miles during marathon training. This year I have been freed and I'm hitting the hills. A much more satisfying experience. The thrill of racing down steep hills is exhilarating!
In a paper by Blair Evans titled ‘Why We Run’ he interviewed 25,000 runners and found we cluster into 5 types of Runners which one are you? #running
OK, I know this joke is making an entirely different point, but it's a good time to remind people that "If you like to run, you are a runner" I think we are the only pastime that imposes a speed qualification on our participation! #running
It should be at top of your Strava homepage
It's a sledge where I come from.
Hill Reps in the snow. Should have taken a sledge to come back down!
Just reread your post. You did have to fit it in to a working day, so ignore that part!
Nothing sad about that. It's a great way to discover a new place. You also have more time to run when you don't have to fit it in to a working day.
Great run, fantastic scenery. You are bussed out to the wilderness and run back into the city centre along the banks of the loch. Course is a net downhill, but has considerable uphill sections too. Definitely need to prepare on hills to take this on. Well organised too!
Love pyros from a distance, not so much when I'm close to them. I can understand why this mother and son may have been scared if they were not expecting it. If it happened to me though the lesson would be "I won't take the bairn in there again" not "fireworks are evil and should be punished!"
