Glasgow parkrun # 93 - 16 October 2010

I cycled along to Pollok Park on Saturday morning to take some photographs and enjoy the post event banter in the Burrell café before heading down to Burns’ country for the Ayrshire Cross Country Championship Relay Race.

Glasgow parkrun
There was an excellent turnout once again at Glasgow parkrun, despite a large number of club runners participating in the various county cross country relay races in the afternoon. Some runners actually did both, including Bellahouston Harrier Suzanne McMahon who placed first woman to win her third race in eight days. Suzanne crossed the line, just two seconds off of her PB, in a time of 20:32. Runner up was Kirkintilloch Olympian Annmarie McCaffrey in 21:19, with Clare MacAulay placing third, with a new PB of 23:19.

Greg Hastie

Men
In the men’s event it was forty year old Ron Hill Cambuslang’s Greg Hastie who earned Gold, finishing just outside of his course PB with a time of 17:10. Garscube’s David Robertson finished in runner’s up spot in 17:43, whilst Sandy Taylor, making his parkrun debut, earned third with a time of 17:56. The age graded performance of the day was run by Al MacLachlan, who, spurred on by his club mate Scott Kennedy, placed fourth overall in his 58th parkrun, with a time of 18:05 and a wava of 82:21.
