Andy, don't think I'm going to do Gateside Gallop. Sounds lovely, but I've sort of half committed to taking a Tempo type run group at club on Wednesday (actually, I'm just scared of 500 ft climb!) Enjoy it though. :-)G

Not sure myself about Gateside now. They've changed my shift - still dayshift but finishing a bit later, which might make it too much of a rush by the time I cycle home then head to Gateside. Oh and I've just thought of something else, Mr D needs the car tomorrow evening... :(

I know a few of you did the S2S Ultra last year ... the same team are organising a repeat event, with both a 28 mile ultra and a 10k "fun" run on 3rd December. I guess neither are cheap as they're intended to be a charity fundraiser but thought it might be of interest?

This is the link for the race justgiving.com

Or here on facebook facebook.com

I bought my first pair of running shoes because of the S2S ... you have a lot to answer for! :)

Nice link Duchess - will check the diary (and snow forecast)

And for those that missed tonight's Gateside Gallop, it was a total cake-fest. They even had profiteroles and scones with cream to go with the chocolate brownies and home-made sausage rolls. I really can't move now.

Was that just for winners Andy? Congrats! Good thing you didn't have the nosh before. You might have rolled downhill, or not made it uphill in first place! :-)G

Anyone not received their Stirling race pack? I'm on entry list but not got anything? Should I be worried?

My VLM entry went missing last year - I'm sure my postie is corrupt.

Might show up - there website suggests you can get new number on day if issue. Just a pain in the rear end really!!

Not sure why I even entered - I've got no speed whatsover... built for halfs/marathons.. which is why I find the idea of a 28mile race strangely appealing - although off road in december with my track record of falls.... hmmm.

Ooh, not going to the dark side of Ultras Lou? Hope you get race nubmer for Stirling sorted. I peeebed at in 2009, before getting my 30 minute Peeeeb at Abingdon. Fancy a 30 min PB? What would that make you? About 2:31?! :-)G

I just got my Stirling number today Lou so fair chance still sending numbers out.

Sure there is a cut point but would have thought it below 10k re: speed,for the times you do half/mara in you need a fair levelof speed and would have thought you would currently knock a chunk of your 10k on a course like Stirling.
