The website again as posted elsewhere by iceblue is http://www.atlantisleisure.co.uk/events.html#half, and Kyle advised that this will be updated shortly with the new routes etc.

I see the Oban website has been updated, with a nice series of photos of the HM route

I've just taken a look at the photos of the half marathon route. I recognise much of the route from my travels in that area. It does look a challenging course, but one that I want to experience.

I ran part of the route last week when I was up in Oban and it was undulating, so I know what I would be letting myself in for ..... need to keep up the hill training now!

Pans Lass- am intrigued - how did you manage up for 9.07am on Saturday morning??? Thought, like me, you would be 'all Horizoned out"

Great night Caro .. still managed to go out for my usual run...think the dancing had me on a high and kept me going next morning. Legs wee bit tired although..I wonder why.

Back to thread ..Oban application sent and look forward to others from Jog Scotland and beyond to join us.

Entering races gets addictive, doesn't it

After all the excitement from running in Glasgow last weekend, I can't wait to do the Oban half now .... only 4 weeks tomorrow
