Orchill 10k and 5k, June 17



Seven Harriers made it to Gleneagles for the Orchill 5k and 10k races. Remarkably, three of the seven were running just a week after completing the Strathearn Marathon – most impressive!

Elaine opted for the 5k race and ran well to finish in fourth position and second lady in a fine time of 24.15.

The rest of the crew opted for the 10k and put in some splendid performances. Angela was first home in 40.13, in 17th position overall and third lady. John, obviously recovering well from his marathon exploits, was next home in 43.02 (25th position). Julia smashed her target of a sub-55 minute 10k before a certain birthday with a terrific 52.40, and Seonaid took over six minutes off her Balmoral 10k time to finish in 53.30. Sandwiched between Julia and Seonaid were Karen and Richard, running together and finishing in 52.49.
