Three Harriers headed to London for the UK’s biggest
marathon and came back with quite different stories. Fiona Lyle was raising
money for CLICSargent, and had put in lots of work in raising funds. In
addition, she trained hard, enjoyed her run in her pink tutu and was rewarded
with a fantastic £6068 for her chosen charity. A terrific effort.
Karen had a less happy day. Logistical problems in getting
to Greenwich was the worst possible start to the event, and unfortunately, things
didn’t really get much better, so Karen’s writing this one down to experience.
Similarly, Graham had a tough time, and had to pull out after about 16 miles.
We had two Harriers in the Edinburgh Marathon. We should
have had three, but unfortunately, Beth managed to pick up an injury a month
before and had to withdraw – not a happy bunny. Sandy Storey was running in memory of his father and was raising money
for Macmillan Cancer Support. On one of the hottest days of the year, he put in
a great performance to finish in 199th position in 3.05.31.
Colin put the disappointment of Lochaber behind him and
finished in a very creditable 5.24.36. Colin tells the story in his own
inimitable style here http://tanconsult.blogspot.co.uk/.
