It's particularly ridiculous when
a. most folk don't book. I've seen guys and gals running there who when we turned up just moved. They were using it, but hadn't booked.
b. we often only use it for 20 mins
c. there are often folk on it, who we have to kick off (see a.!)
d. we spend a goodly lot in there cafe etc. anyway
e. we should def get a discount as FERC are UK Athletics affiliated
f. many of us are also members of Scottish Athletics
g. aaargh, do they want us to just watch telly?!

If we go for Stirling, it should be a flashmob sort of thing - little point in booking it at £50, when it's possible to wing it and hope it's not being (completely) used when we happen to be there.

Will doodle when I'm at home and can see the diary - later

Are Meadowmill (Prestonpans) and Dalkeith off the radar anyway then (as prob a bit far for some Fetchies) or should I go and find out about their prices? I did ask before, but that's so long ago, I completely forgot...

I like the idea of Andy's track (provided there's cake) or the Alloa one (given that I've never been to Hawaii).

Hi guys, spoke to my coach, East Kilbride is £35 per hour for exclusive use. Hope this information is of use to whoever is organising this! :) give me a shout if you need the contact details for the track.

How does this doodle thing work? Do I just pick a date that I prefer?
