The Kintyre Forum

News has filtered through to us that entries for MOKRUN 2012 are now open.

The hugely popular event, heading for its 7 year in 2012, will be held on Sunday the 3rd June to coincide with the move of the spring bank holiday from May to June. (The spring bank holiday will also be moved to June 4 in 2012 to form a long weekend together with the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee bank holiday on Tuesday 5th June 2012)

Details of how to enter can be found at http://www.mokrun.com/index.htm

Organisers have kept the number of entries - 750 - the same as in 2011 which was an increase of 100 from 2010.

Its odd to think the idea of the races was first raised on the forum back in 2005 (can anyone find that post???) with the hope of getting around 30 runners to now being in its 7th year with 750 and after being voted the Runners World 2010 Ultimate Race Guide Number 1 Half Marathon in the UK!!



If you want to see more photos from 2012 see viewtopic.php?f=28&t=12046

The run out from the Aqualibrium to Westport, across to Machrihanish and back in to the town is almost exactly thirteen miles and would be a pretty impressive route. I know there used to be various 10ks around the town, but are any still going? Even a handful of runners would make it worthwhile, and might manage to attract a few people down to the town.........

Over 400 entries gone already! Amazing!

PS - Bill, thanks - what is the link? (too lazy!! )
