rleyton Jan 2008 11:57am, 10 Jan 2008 11 posts	0 rleyton Just wanted to see if there were any Scottish Fetchies who'd be interested in seeing a time trial (on the Bushy Park Time Trial model) come to Glasgow. I've had positive responses from Glasgow's Culture and Sports team, and they're talking about it at the moment. Whilst they talk about it, I'm now trying to get some support from the running community. More here: leyton.org and: parkrun.com for the UKTT website. It's far from being a done deal, so hoping that support from the running community in Glasgow would help matters. Your thoughts, comments and (hopefully) support very welcome!

rleyton Jan 2008 12:28pm, 10 Jan 2008 12 posts	0 rleyton That's the good thing about the UKTT idea: You don't have to race hard each time! Just build it in to your training, tack it on the end of a long run, or view it as a social event for like-minded people. It's really as much fun or as serious as you want to make it. You can also come along and help!
