2015 Harriers Prize Giving

Club President Kenny Leinster presents prizes to all the category winners.
Congratulations to all the Harriers who received awards from our various club competitions through the 2015 season. The presentations (to those who were there) were made after Brampton last Sunday in the Star Hotel, Moffat. Prizes were awarded to our Grand Prix and Scratch championship winners:
Ladies' Grand Prix

Ladies' Scratch Championship

Finally, the shield for the first Calderglen Harrier across the line at Brampton was also presented, the winner being Ian Hughes.

The great thing about Calderglen is that there is something for everybody. As the list of prize winners shows, you don't have to be elite or the fastest in the club to win something in this club. You just have to do your best, train hard, show some improvement and have a go at a good number of races. As the old saying goes, "you gotta be in it to win it!".  All of the competitions above are underway for the 2016 season. Have a look at what's involved using the various links on the left of the blog or ask Russell or me and we will (try to) explain.

Individual photos of the prize winners in Moffat are at the end of the Brampton album here.

Congrats to,all,the winners. I fully endorse Alan's comments regarding "anyone can win." As a previous winner of a few competitions, you only get out what you put in.
