Congratulations
to Donna Gray who won last weeks Beach Bum Run at Balmedie.
Donna
was first lady home in a time of 28:53.
Donna tells us that part
of her prize for being first was one of those slab-sized bars of
chocolate (the kind you could slab your garden patio with...or is it
only me that has these dreams?).
Too bad Donna is
chocolate-intolerant; still I'm sure Chris appreciated your
evening's effort.
Well done Donna!...now if you could just
enlighten the me on how to become chocolate intolerant, then I'm
sure I would see a quantum leap in my running
performance.....

Congratulations to
GRR's David Blaine who completed the Fife 50k last weekend in a
cracking time of 4:06.
Well done!

Congratulations also to GRR's Rab Murray
who placed 7th overall in the Longside 10k at the weekend.
Rab
recorded a time of 38:49.
Rab tells us he was pleased with the
improvement in his 10k time & cant wait for the Baker Hughes 10k
this weekend to see what time he can get there.
Way to go Rab!

Congratulations also to Duncan Leel
who ran the Dunnect 5k on Sunday. Duncan placed 1st in the U18 age
group (9th overall) with a time of 19:06
Congratulations to
Duncan's brother Cameron who was also competing (along with what
looks like the entire village of Chapel of Garioch judging by the
results sheet); Cameron got a time of 23:23.
Well Done
guys!
Whew! What a hectic racing weekend!
And quite a
few placings too!

Speedwork Facilities
- Now available!
Watch this space for more details of GRR
organised training nights, hopefully with a qualified
coach!.
The warmer weather is upon us (honest) and so
Inverurie Academy have laid out their playing fields for the
Athletic season.
The good news is that it means we have a 400m
track (grass) on our doorstep - all nicely laid out waiting for you
to have a blast round some night when speedwork takes your fancy (I
know & when hell freezes over I hear you say...)
Not
sure where the track is? click
