After nearly 10 years away from Edinburgh, I've finally not renewed my Harmeny membership this year - I've not attended a training session since I left. No more feeling guilty when the email goes out pleading for runners to make up the teams Any future road/ultra races will be under the Lochtayside name/vest - our wee local club that is unaffiliated
