Glasgow Half Marathon

Eamon Kennedy made the long trip up North to complete the Glasgow Half Marathon on Sunday 6th October.  A brand new event offered plenty of city landmarks to enjoy on the flat, fast route.  Eamon chalked up a 1:50:33 finish.

Blenheim Half Marathon

In it's third year, the Blenheim Half Marathon offers a beautiful backdrop for a running festival.  As well as the half, there is a 10K option and a family fun run starting right outside the palace, birthplace of Winston Churchill.

The route is two loops of the grounds the first skirts the perimeter before returning for the final three miles to the finish.  The final two miles joins the back end of the 10K making the course busy with a vibrant atmosphere.

The only downside to the event is that spectators are charged to enter the grounds of the palace but there was plenty of enthusiasm from the crowds.

Mark Kennedy completed the half in 1:35:58.

Put An Abersoch In It

The Baldwins took a trip to West Wales to tame the Abersoch Half Marathon, a beautiful off road course with a tough finish on the beach.  With names printed on the numbers, there was plenty of support and cheering for the field.  Darren finished in 1:41:10 and Suzanne in 2:08:30.
