An amazing large group of 38 runner’s and 3 walkers turned out for last Thursday’s run on a night that at sometimes only a handful have turned up. Here is Barry Higgins media report on the night.
First home in the non-championship event around the Paisley Road Harriers’ course last Thursday evening (28 December) was John Mackenzie. In mild conditions the second finisher was Nick Schilling, recently returned from living and working in Queensland, ahead of the consistent Adrian Masterman-Smith.
Quickest women were Deborah Piercy, in training for the 100 km Oxfam Trailwalk, junior Lauren Isles and Australian representative Sandra Timmer-Arends
