Weekend Race Results

On Saturday John mcBride and Russell headed to Strathclyde parkrun for a much busier race than normal with Pollock being off. it was a warm morning but a bit off a breeze going up the lochside helped to cool a little. John obviously found the benefit of this and also running his flattest 5k ran a PB of 22.05 meanwhile myself still nursing a sciatic nerve problem and after running thursday and friday was happy to run 27.23. Also making his debut was Marc Cassidy one of our junior males and this should give him a base to work on and improve upon in a time of 42.20. Well done Marc and keep working hard at training and that time will come down.
on to Sunday and the Bella 5k George Stewart was first harrier home in what can only be described as hot conditions in a time of 21.12 and getting back to some decent form.
John on the back of his PB on Saturday was after another but just fell short in 22.10.
I went for another go but was definetly feeling the previous three days running but ran 9secs faster than saturday on a more technical course but happy with 27.14 as apart from a little stiffness the leg seems in reasonable shape but definetly feel the benefit of some consecutive runs.
In fact ive decided as tours are the flavour of the month to call these four days the tour of Couper(Calderglen Time Trial,Bellahouston Belter 10k,parkrun and Bella 5k) and its a great honour to be the first winner of this tour. In all seriousness its good to get back to back running in and hopefully i can build on this and get the pace up.

If anyone else was running at the weekend let us know.
