No rest for the wicked.....or the (should be) committed runner!!

Entries are being sought early for The Deerstalker (5k and daylight) the Mighty Deerstalker( 10k and a bit and dark some of the way) and the hugely popular MOK run...if you do one run next year this is the one to choose (apart from the Dun na Cuiche that is!) .If you fancy moving up from a 10k to a half I can provide a programme tried and tested!!


Loch Lomond Spa 5/10k run

Tin Farm 5

Information from Kirsty, one of the Tin Farm 5 organisers. A great local race so get your forms filled in! Garret, Toby , Rosie and I have sent ours off. I have sent out the original e mail with the attachment or you can contact me for another one, will also bring some to js tonight.

Well it's that time of year again folks!  The summer has fled, winter is on its way and we're all looking for something that will keep us motivated to get out train as the nights get darker and those runs become cold and wet.  Well I have just the thing for you, November the 7th, make your way to Ormsary Estate for the 4th running of the Tin Farm 5.  If you are interested in a 5 mile run through woodlands and over beaches then please send the attached entry form with you entry fee to me at the address below.

Dinah and I would like to take this opportunity to once again thank Sir William and Lady Lithgow for their continued support of the event and allowing us to make use of their beautiful estate.  Thanks also to Allt Dearg Community Wind Farm for sponsoring the event for a second year.  We are delighted to have chooselife on board this year and all donations from the soup and sandwiches will go to RSABI (the Royal Scottish Agricultural Benevolent Institution).

We have 70 entries available for this years race so get your entry in early to avoid disappointment as there will be no entries on the day.  We look forward to seeing you on the 7th November for a great days racing.

Happy Running

Marathon Day -1 for JS member Garret

It is Garret's big day tomorrow and the final preparations are over and done with..No, not last minute sprints or muscle stretching but the trimming of the beard and packing of multiple energy bars and drinks to sustain him through 26 plus miles (oh and a night in the car too...). Naomi arrived here snuffling full of cold and under the weather and so they set off Inverness bound at mid-day comforting each other with their various excuses for any possible under-performance...watch this space!
 Plans are afoot for another Jingle Bells run..5th December time to be arranged, venue Caravan park. a 5k open to js members only. We are hoping to attract some new beginners and will be offering a start running course from October 26th. But don't worry...we will not be neglecting your training either!!
