Neil McCover Memorial Half Marathon - Sunday Oct 9th

It is now, almost 12 months since Kirkintilloch Olympian stalwart Neil McCover died after his bike collided with a car in East Renfrewshire. The memory of the popular 55year old Police Superintendent is being celebrated with the staging of a half marathon along the route of the Luddon Half Marathon, held in the 1980s and 1990s. Starting and finishing in Woodhead Park, Kirkintilloch, the scenic route takes in Milton of Campsie, Lennoxtown, Torrance and Lenzie.


The cost of the event is £17 (£15 SA affiliated) whilst there will be t-shirt for all finishers and over £2000 of prizes, the real reason to participate is to mark the memory of an inspirational runner who tragically died too young.

The closing date for entries is Monday 3rd October and you can apply here.
