This run is part of the New York Marathon week-end events.

This 4 mile jog is for International Marathon entrants and friends and starts at the United Nations Building ending at the marathon finish at the Tavern on the Green in Central Park. I arrived to find I was one of twenty thousand other runners, enjoying the atmosphere and the sights of other runners dressed in fancy dress or National Costume.

Everyone was enjoying being part of this special run, and running with the Scottish runners behind a huge Saltire felt really good.

Prior to the start of the Friendship run Paula Radcliffe was presented with the Abebe Bikila award for her outstanding contribution to the sport and distance running, and I was there right at the front with runners from over 100 different countries.

What a day!

The husband and wife team strike again, this time Amsterdam was the place and a Marathon was on order.

This was Val’s first Marathon and didn’t she do well!

Congratulations to Val and Gordon.

It was the very first Aviemore Highland Half Marathon on Sunday 15th October, and this was also Shirley Ann’s very first Half Marathon.

Shirley Ann completed the event in a quicker time than she thought she would. Well done!!!

At the Kirky 10K, Mary Ellen beats her goal time by over 3mins.

Well Done!

After her successful run at the Ladies 10K in Glasgow, there was no stopping our Margaret; she was filling in race entry forms for up and down the country.

This is her caught on camera at the Mull of Kintyre 10K.

That’s another medal for the collection.

Well Done Margaret!!
