edinburgh marathon festival

well done to all who took part in the running events over last weekend, some amazing running despite the changeable weather.
Congratulations to Lee Ansett with a new marathon Pb, Gillian White with a new half marathon Pb & George for finishing a half marathon without getting cramp. Perhaps there is something to this magnesium oil!

& last but not least , the intrepid Saturday morning crowd [& Steven Burnett ] who set off on a particularly hilly 10K course & seemed to have a good time doing it.
