A special Sunday run

Many Strathearn Harriers and friends got together today with members of the Wake family for a special Sunday run up to a tall cairn that stands on Choinneachain Hill above Loch Turret, one of Simon's favourite places.

A large group of runners reached the cairn and took a quiet minute to remember Simon.

After coffee and biscuits, the group set off back down the hill, through mist and stinging hail, to emerge back at the dam, refreshed and invigorated by a run that Simon too would have enjoyed.

The weather was interesting to say the least, especially for those of the Wake clan who are more used to sunny climes, and the routefinding was of the usual Harriers standard (!), but we all felt the better for the outing.
