Bennachie Hill Race Update

A big thanks you to everyone who helped out with the organisation & runnning of this year's Bennachie Hill race. After a fairly miserable day of weather on Saturday when we were out marking the course, a brilliant, sunny Autumn race day followed. This seemed to bring out the crowds with a total of 131 entrants for the hill race, which was an increase of almost 30 entrants from last year.
We managed to have enough marshalls for the race to still get a bunch of GRRers to take part in the race; results as follows:

Nicola Redgwell 1:33:04
Duncan Leel 1:20:41
Ian Cran 1:20:50
James Macgregor 1:12:25
Pete Stephen 1:46:19
Rab Murray 1:09:05
Richard Ingram 1:20:59
Steve Ord 1:14:29

Congratulations to Cameron Leel who managed to win the Junior Hill race, by the narrowest of margins (1sec) in a time of 19:56

Congratulations also to Pete Stephens who continued his record run of completing all 19 stagings of the BHR race!

Well Done Everyone!
====================================
Rab (the night runner) Murray asked to put out a request for a spare race entry for the forthcoming Aviemore Half marathon.

What's Up This Week

Tuesday Evening...

Club Run round Inverurie.
Usual Meeting time of 6.30pm at the foyer in the Garioch Sports Centre.
Despite the less than ideal running surface, this isnt as bad as it sounds; its fully lit throughout, and at this time of year a clear crisp autumnal evening can be quite refreshing.

Bagel Boy Recommends....
What to eat after your bagel?

Your food intake should be a balanced one - so after a healthy low-fat bagel, how about a naughty chocloate brownie?
The new Deli in Inverurie (the Kilted Frog) provided a platter of these for the Bennachie Hill race tea tent, and apparently they were divine.....
