Run with us!
Not content with racing at Kinnoull Hill on Thursday, Lauren was back in action on Saturday with Richard Collingwood at the Dick Wedlock 10k in Pollok Park, hosted by the Scottish Fire and Rescue Athletics Club. Richard finished in 44.45, and Lauren scored another new pb of 46.17.
Nick pips Wattie in a finishing straight sprint, with fines times in the 29 minute range. Tony just managed to overhaul Andy Gallagher on the very last short sharp climb and was able to keep ahead to the end. Next in was Jim Alexander, followed by Al Nicholl (with a new best time for this race) and Gordon Morrison, with Lauren Fairweather first Harrier woman home, and with Keira Reid running well on her Kinnoull Hill debut.
Andrew Brown ran the Babcock Dumbarton 10k on Thursday and scored a new 10k pb with a time of 44.43 - lots of hard winter training paying off!
Runners of all ages and levels of fitness are welcome at our club training and club runs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays with some seasonal variation.
Whether you are local or a visitor to the area, a competitive runner or social jogger, if you like to run, why not come along and join in?
We have a lively and active Junior Harriers section, open to all between the ages of 9 and 16. Juniors meet on 5.30pm on Tuesday and Thursday evenings at Taylor Park in Crieff.
Strathearn is a great place for running
With Strathearn Harriers you can run on roads, trails, hills and cross-country, as well as taking part in races locally and elsewhere.
The Club organises three races. In June, we host The Strathearn Marathon, a rewarding marathon in a beautiful Perthshire setting, which is rapidly becoming a firm favourite on the Scottish marathon circuit.
In July we hit the trails to the west of Crieff for one of Scotland's most enjoyable and scenic 10ks. Full race information and online entry here for The Crieff 10k.
And in September, we organise a great hill relay race in the hills above Comrie - full race information here for the Simon Wake Comrie Hills Relay.
