Any update from Saturday?

The meeting went well, and the plans to date were discussed and a few good ideas brought up that we hadn't thought of. The Courier came along and have offered to put a piece in tomorrows paper, so that should help with the publicity. Had quite a few phone calls from potential runners, and sounds like there could also be a few coming down the road from mid-Agyll/Glasgow. So all in all, happy that we're still moving along in the right direction.

Out of interest - as I was speaking to a few people at work and over the weekend about this - who on this board is thinking of running in this? And if so what will you be running in?

Think for the noo, I'll aim at the 10k with a possibility of the half marathon. :shock:

The latter will only be achieved if I ever get off this PC! :wink:

I think the interesting part of the hlaf marathon is definitely the run over westport beach!

Not that I am getting involved in the running of the 10k but thought you may be intrested to look at a website I have set-up for the race.

http://www.mokrun.co.uk/

I mentioned a while back I would help out with a website so I got a bit of a shock when I heard on Thursday it was in the Courier on Friday. :shock:

Anyway, I rattled something together but over the weekend I tidied it all up and above is the result. If anyone notices any mistakes etc please let me know.

very good - as long as its not them Speedos you've got :wink:

None of the organisers running in it? :wink:

Davie,

Great effort on creating the website, looks very professional. Sorry for the short notice, but it was too good a chance to miss plugging the web address!

I'd like to do the run, but don't think I'll get a chance this year - I'll do the training though, just in case.......probably.

by **elainemck** » Thu Dec 15, 2005 5:41 pm

Yeah Davie sorry about landing the website on you late Thursday night!!! It took me ages making the first few web pages of it and putting in all the information, pictures, entry form and links - thanks for putting it all together. You've made it look great - thanks for all your efforts.

I would really like to run the race but not sure if needed on day.... we'll see!

Like Tom I'll be doing the training anyway just in case!

The 10km run looks like a good walk! :wink:

So I will try and give this a go - run a bit , walk a bit etc!

New Year's Resolutions! how about all those who are planning to get out and exercise more in the new year getting together and planning some training for the half marathon / 10k? anyone interested? Might be an opportunity to get Campbeltown / or where ever you are/ hooked into the jogging networks. I'll be training - but not at any great speed!! happy to meet up with anyone looking to start from the beginning. jackie

Sounds good Jackie, I'd like to try but am very unfit. Please let me know if you are arranging something.
