Bazoaxe Mar 2018 7:22pm, 17 Mar 2018 12,674 posts	0 Bazoaxe PB is 1:23:59 so anything around that would be fine I think the wind tomorrow will work in our favour. Behind us for the long straight, the rest is a loop and although it will make it hard, you dont get the full effect. I felt last year with the wind the opposite way you didnt get the benefit but go the full effect in the straight and thats when I fell apart and I think you passed me and ran a great race

Ally-C Mar 2018 10:22am, 18 Mar 2018 242 posts	0 Ally-C AFAIK Loch Katrine went ahead.
Duchess Mar 2018 7:40pm, 18 Mar 2018 7,747 posts	0 Duchess Loch Katrine went ahead indeed, nor surprisingly with a very high no-show rate, particularly in the 10k and Half. Although Audrey and I were stood in the snow covered car park at 7.30am debating if we'd need to drop everything down to a single 10k race. And agreeing whose heartedly that Alloa made the right call to cancel.
