Glasgow University Road Race Results

At last we have the results from last weeks University race.
Leading a lone furrow for our ladies was Frances Maxwell 36:10 158th but could have been faster if not for the start of what was a new course to most of us.
The course now being a 2 lap route with a tough uphill start but at the top of the hill there is a small gate for over 200 runners to queue up to get through.
Not a good start but after this some good running as you head down towards the canal, turn left and run parallel to the canal, then left again and head back to Maryhill Road and into the science park before doing a second lap. Fortunately no queue at the gate on the 2nd lap.
Onto the men and leading us home was M Duthie 28:17, 32nd another excellent performance from Martin and continuing his recent good form. Next in was A Cullie 29:22, 41st and really starting to show he may soon be a threat to Martin being 1st Harrier.
E Reid completed our first three 30:51, 64th.
Other harriers running where S Hill 32:28 92nd, J Holmes 32:57 99th, S Waugh 33:08 102nd,
D Herbertson 34:04 116th, C Banks 35:05 132nd in a close race with D Wardrope 35:07 133rd.
That would have been a good finish to see but i was probably just past the canal while that was going on. R Lawton 39:27 193rd, C Steven 41:41 209th and R Couper 47:04 222nd.

Our next Grand Prix race is Brampton on the 21st so hope to see this close competition from some of the Harriers carried over onto the longer distance.
A special thanks go to S Reid and A Derrick for coming along to support us while running.
Lets see if we can get good turnouts at our future races this year like the numbers we get for Brampton. To coin a phrase from Nike JUST DO IT!
