McAndrew Relays Report

A fine turnout from the Harriers today with one complete ladies team and two and a half mens teams.
With four runners lining up at the start we had Stephen Reilly running the B team ahead of the A team due to him not being a Vet, Stephen finishing in 19.42. Next in was Jim Holmes for the Vets A team in a time of 20.51 followed closely by our ladies team Karen Sturgeon 21.13 then a little wait for Hugh Simpson in a new course best 23.42. So off were all our second leg runners, their turn to face the wind on Anniesland Rd the rest of the course being fairly free of wind and with the dry cool conditions it made a pleasant change as this race is usually wet. Andt Henderson brought the B team in still ahead of the A team in 21.02 with Eddie Reid closing the gap in 20.24. Our ladies had joanne McEvoy on this leg running a consistent 22.07 followed not so closely by Russell Couper in the expected time of 27.01. This was the mens C team complete so taking the title of 1st Calderglen team to finish. Onto our 3rd legs and Andrew McCaffery overhauled our B team with our best time of the day 18.58 with David Wardrope dropping back but still with a good time of 22.57. Our ladies 3rd leg went to Julie Beveridge pulling a bit back on our B team with a time of 21.27 and possibly 3rd ladies team (need to wait for the results). That left our two 4th leg runners to battle it out David Herbertson fresh off the plane from Thailand and Mark Saez making his debut on this course.  David had enough of a start to fend off Mark running in 21.16 with Mark 20.29. Dont know the placings yet but will get them online when they are ready.
