The Jogscotland String

For 2011 we have decided to give the healthy local running and jogging community a forum of their own!

Enjoyed yesterday morning's jogscotland run up Westport Beach at a nice easy pace, and the sea breezes kept me cool 8)

it was just beautiful iceblue, just a shame we hadnt got longer and could have went further. think we should do same next week if weather keeps up and then we can go a wee bit further if we r organised. will need to wait n see.

what more could you ask for than some good company and a beautiful beach to go jogging arent we lucky :D :D

We are lucky Fiona28, most people don't have the opportunity to run on the beach on such a hot sunny day :) and the company certainly makes the time pass really quickly!

abbeycraig you'd manage fine - anyone can do jogscotland but youd have to go before your run to the golden ocean :oops: :?

Jog scotland string.... good one fiona28 :lol: :lol:

Looking forward to getting back on track after my few days off...really missed my training day on Saturday ..sad when you would rather be there than on holiday. :) :)

As a new member of jog scotland I cannot praise the leaders and the team enough and I encourage anyone to join not only for the support and training tips but for the team spirit that goes along with it . It's fun too. :D

hi out there all you beginners who ran your first time trial tonight - well done to you all - even if you all went faster than i had told you to :oops: a bunch of competitors if i ever saw them.

our first 1 mile time trial gave us results between 10:12mins and 13:30mins which is abs excellent for some girls in their first and second weeks - big effort from all - thanks for playing the game :D :D

hoping all will enter for the 10k in glasgow on 2 sept 07.

a good weekend out without alcohol :wink: :shock:

iceblue you havent been on to let us know how you went in the 10k and we're all bursting to find out so give us a shout :D

anyone with any points taken from tonight feel free to post and well done to you all :oops: 8)

We know you are mental (your training comment) and we know you are the boss but if there is no alcohol - at least on the Friday night WE ARE NOT GOING!!! (Think I can speak for the rest of the gang on that one :lol: :wink: :lol: ). Only kidding - was good to get the times tonight and looking forward to Tuesday to see what's next. Think some of these beginners doing lots of secret practice though :D but well done!!
