A foggy night for a run

2012-02-12T11:56:00.000Z

A fine night for a spooky run through the mists and woods last Thursday...Wendy, Fee, Alison and Penny braved the dark, puddles,mud and potential scary things in the woods for a very, very nearly 5 mile run! For those wishing to continue the mileage challenge we are starting again NEXT Thursday ( February 16th) and this time will make it 21 days to end on a Thursday. The challenge is of course to beat your own personal mileage that you set....so Alison get running!!

Lovely turn out tonight and great to welcome Wendy to the group. A lovely 3.4 miles to add to the twenty day mile measure....You are all doing fabulously well with your tallies great and small...keep it up!

Just a couple of things in the pipeline:- The Crinan Puffer entries are well under way and filling up so grab yours if you are planning on it this year. I am planning to hold a Sports Relief Mile on Thursday March 22nd at 6.30pm, if needs be we shall marshal it and then hold the usual js group afterwards.I will advertise on FB and maybe a poster or two and good old word of mouth. Any comments welcome. Folk can walk, hop, skip, do it with a friend three legged or even run it!!

Starry starry night...briefly!

2012-01-20T14:42:00.001Z

It seems we were smiled on by whichever deity you feel like trusting in last night as the hail storms that dogged the day held off until we were doing our last stretches. The great 20 day mileage measure has started and so those who attended last night already have 3.7 under their belts. You can let me know how you are doing but I will only announce to the blogging and facebook community how you are doing if you wish me to. We are measuring our individual mileage from yesterday (19th) up to and including the 7th February. Please feel free to put on facebook etc your progress or any favourite runs as a motivation/encouragement to us all.. A reminder that the Crinan Puffer has opened for registration....link on previous blog entry. More details re The Gigha challenge on May 5th when I get them.

First meeting of the year...and a good turn out.

2012-01-14T21:16:00.000Z

Lovely to see such a good turn out on Thursday...but Jacs, we missed you!!! A longer warm up followed by some lovely skipping and steps...If you look hard you can spot all the backwards and forwards stuff...Oh and remember...Freya and Penny did .5 mile further than the rest of us.......As discussed as a wee bit of motivation for those who wish to please record your mileage for 20 days from next Thursday onwards. You can submit it for public approval or I shall keep it in confidential.

Inveraray Jail Break Sadly this year’s race will not take place. There has beensignificant damage to the route after the recent storms and the estates teamcannot guarantee the condition of the route so I have had to take the decisionnot to run the race this year. Hopefully by 2013 the route will be run-ableagain.

Entries for the Crinan Puffer are now open, this is a very popular FLAT 8.5 miler so get your entries in. Fiona and Alison are already in so who else is up for it?

Also the Glasgow 10k is open for entries...

Jingling all the way home.

2011-12-12T10:11:00.001Z

A fantastic turnout for the Jingle Bells run yesterday with runners and walkers from the Ormsary and Mid Argyll groups joining us for a run, a chat and some festive fodder. Many thanks to all who came and bought contributions. Now the results.....
Toby put in a fantastic time of 29 minutes to come in first overall and first male junior in hill race which was thankfully snow free. Dave was followed him over the finish line in a time of 33.43, a great time on an unfamiliar course with haphazard sign-age and was promptly given the job of time keeper. A little bit of position jostling went on in the final stages with first females Naomi and Rebecca coming in together with Matt 41.18 closely followed by Freya first junior female and Garret in 41.25. Fee and Jacky came next in 47.22, followed by Fiona in 50.10. With Alison keeping Linda company on her way back from the coastal route in 51.51 the hill runners were all home in under the hour. A smaller field set out for the coastal route but nonetheless competitive wuth Rosie leading the way on familiar ground to finish in 44.10 as first overall and female junior winner, Simone was on her heels at 44.55. An absolutley heroic run from Ben with coach Dinah in under the hour 59.30 and some good chat along the way. A great run from Tilly and Mum Janet too, she is going to catch you soon Janet!.

Jingle Bells Run December 11th at 11am

2011-11-25T16:12:00.001Z

Informal Jingle Bells run around Clunary....Two routes:- One a two mile out and two mile back (if you dont want to do the four miles you can turn at any point and retrace your steps), the other one is a round route 4.5 miles with a stiffish (400ft or so) climb at the start but then it is mainly downhill with a great view. Walkers/hangers on welcome. There will be some signs at main junctions...and folk to run with. Soup and Mince pies at Claonairigh afterwards. Please let me know if you are coming for planning reasons!! As always no insurance and certainly no marshals. £1 donation for the soup etc. festively themed attire i.e. bells encouraged but not essential.

And we thought last week was lousy weather.....

2011-11-24T22:10:00.001Z

Much respect to all who came tonight...(and there was an impressive number) braving the wind and rain yet again...The castle grounds warm up was more like a river run but we all survived the weather and some interesting driving manoeuvres/ lamp post rage (you had to be there) during some hill work, some circuits and some lamp posts. Note for diaries....The last session of the Christmas term will be on TUESDAY December 20th .Usual running nonsense followed by a wee visit to The George. Jingle Bells run is 11th December and I promise I shall set the route before next week...honest.

Through lashing rain and howling winds we splashed our way through 100m-400m sprints last night. However we were still smiling and smug with the effort of a good work out. Thanks for turning out. Jingle Bells run 12th December. More info soon. Big thank you to everyone who supported the Glow in the Dark run. Nearly £500 raised so thank you one and all.

Hard core runners

2011-11-04T11:08:00.001Z

Great to see a good turn out on what could not in any way be described as a nice evening... Until the end when the moon shone on Kerry's excellent drill session. Thanks Kerry. Between the driving and torrential rain showers we did a really decent warm up ( we needed it) christening Kerry's new trainers nicely... Sorry about that. The hill training was a delight I am sure you all found (PS the lights are now back on...there's service for you!!) . Then the drills so a good session. Good luck to all Tin Farm 5ers on Sunday. Now that really will christen any new trainers!! Will post last nights route as soon as I have edited it to delete the car journey home as I forgot to switch off. A reminder for the Glow in The Dark run next Friday...meeting as usual on Thursday and then meeting at 1800, or preferably 10 minutes earlier at the school on Friday...my hair gel has arrived so be ready to be amazed!!
Other events...Linda is doing a charity challenge for Marie Curie Cancer care:-

The Etape Caledonia charity cycle race. This event starts at Pitlochry, goes for a wee loop around Loch Tummel, Loch Rannoch and then up the side of Schiehallion before returning to Pitlochry. A mere 80 + miles! What a woman!!

Many thanks to all for their congratulations on the award at the weekend. It was a wonderful evening that I thoroughly enjoyed. It was great to meet the jogscotland folk and have a chat.... And we know how I like chatting. Oh, and great to get an award for doing what I love,running and chatting. You have kept ME supported,motivated and focused all year and and I thank you for it!

Good warm up tonight and then a mere 6 minutes of different speed running...oh and then again...and again.Well done all for sticking with it. Great to catch up again and be back into the training groove. Entries are open for the 2012 MOK already so get in there as it fills up FAST!

Members take part in Mid Argyll Triathlon

2011-09-30T16:22:00.000+01:00

Toby, Rosie, Liz, Garret and Fee took part in this local event last Sunday. The weather was lousy but spirits high for the 10th anniversary event. With all of us in different heats except Liz and Fee it was difficult to keep track! Rosie was first away from the pool but unfortunately had a fall from her bike within about a mile or so, she was patched up and amazingly set out again to complete the cycle amongst much admiration, very cold and tired by then she withdrew from the run. Toby despite being baulked in the swim put in a great performance with a time of 1:16:39, definitely beating his Dad this year who did a stalwart time of 1:22:42. Liz was the star of the day coming in at 1:27:07 and scooting third female veteran, second Mid Argyll female finisher and fastest T2 transition of 16s!!

Achnamara 10k

2011-09-11T20:39:00.001+01:00

The pre flurries of Hurricane Irene could certainly be felt as we headed our way down to Achnamara for this local fund raiser! However the rain did clear after a short sharp shower on the way to the start line and stayed away almost until the end...the wind on the other hand was certainly an issue especially after the 7k mark!

Great to be back and running with you again. The run out last night was from Claonairigh with a very steep start indeed. The views were good though from the top and the chat even better. Well done Janice, Rosie, Linda, Fee, Alison and Jacs. Next week we are planning on the Dubh Loch (Black Loch) circular route (? aprox 3 miles) so will meet there at 7pm. Anyone wanting to be picked up let me know...

Friends of The Beatson Run

2011-07-21T15:21:00.000+01:00

Well, runner extraordinaire Liz set off last Saturday, with fabulous support from friends, family and fellow runners and five days/ 77 miles later finished at Dall Farm, Ardeonaig on the South Side of Loch Tay having raised funds for Friends of the Beatson Charity.
Prominant amongst the runners for the first day were many fellow inveraray jogscotland runners giving support to Liz along the way. Garret, Fiona and Kerry took the first stage from Minard to Auchindrain. Kerry peeled off here leaving Fee, Alison and Jacs (on her first cross country run...and this is cross country in the true sense of the word....) to take the second stage and third stages. Garret and Fiona stayed the full distance with Rosie and Toby picking us up for the last 4 miles of what turned out to be a very hot run!! So well done all on supporting Liz (and well done Jacs on your longest run ....so far!!). Photos here.

End of session stuff and changes afoot!

2011-07-01T14:42:00.001+01:00

Fantastic turn out for the end of session run last night although the rain also turned up albeit briefly. A variety of runs and distances were on offer and most were taken advantage of . With the "no longer beginners" taking the anti clockwise route and the old hands going the other way we fully expected to meet Toby first on his way round clockwise but no, Matt, Rosie and Kerry hove into view with Toby a little way behind having discovered that texting/facebook+running= taking a wrong turn.....He soon corrected the running order and we all turned to continue in the return direction....alas the GPS never lies and shows how we cut a corner on the way home......I hope that everyone enjoyed the evening as much as I did...Thank you very much for my presents. The beautiful Border Collie tile in proudly in place as from 8am this morning, the wine is still intact and the flowers are beautiful. I shall look forward to spending my token having refused this am to let Garret use it to buy compost.....
Then it was my turn to thank you all which I think I managed very inadequately but you all know how much you have supported, teased, sympathised, encouraged and listened over the weeks so THANK YOU!!
Awards...Toby presented medals to Penny, Janice and Jillian for all their hard work both at home and on a Thursday night. Keep on running girls!!
Fiona was given the "Most Miles" Award and Janet in her absence the "Most Improved". Rosie, Linda and Alison are all "Going for a Challenge" this year with Rosie facing her first sprint triathlon soon and Linda and Alison take on a half marathon each in September...this is what the group is about and it is great to see you all taking on the miles! Penny is also going for it with a 10k also in September. Kerry and Liz both have supported the group when I have been unable to run recently and for this I thank them very much more than the "Special Award" could show really. Ditto for Jacs who has been a very motivating and helpful member of both groups encouraging the beginners group to continue and also supporting Toby when he was leading the group in my absence. Finally Very Special thanks went to Toby for leading and planning the sessions for the beginners...he approached this with trepidation but has been a great jogscotland leader taking his responsibilities very seriously.We also discussed the merging of the two groups and summer plans. It was decided that a different person will take responsibility for planning a run each Tuesday mainly out with Inveraray in the area from the Dhub Loch to Ardcastle to give wider scope of run. The person leading the run (Kerry is next Tuesday) will keep all informed through Face book (everyone except Jacs who will need to be texted...apply to me for number!) Kerry is planning an event yet to be confirmed in Furnace probably on the last Tuesday before the schools return. It was also decided to move the day of the running group to Thursday night 7-8pm as a trial from the start of the Autumn term until October to avoid a clash with Zumba. Any feedback on the above will be very welcome!

WhooYoo!!! Well, the Thursday girls certainly put a lot into it and are now reaping the benefits...Beginners no more! Janice, Penny and Jillian managed 10 and 12 minute runs on a very warm but very pleasant afternoon yesterday...no drowned rats this time. Ably accompanied by Jacs Penny disappeared off into the distance for her run whilst Janice determinedly pushed the goal posts all session with Jillian encouraging and supporting her all the way. A good week for the 2011 beginners with Janet doing an incredible 45 minute run earlier in the week. So proud of you all..well done!!

Thanks you as well for all your support to me personally. The Inveraray Thursday group are doing really well up to five minutes running and learning to judge the pace fantastically well. The Furnace Monday group are also doing really well...and Janice has been attending both groups and so is really motivated! Well done Janice. plans are afoot for a summer term run and meal at The George (reward time??). Thursday 30th June is the proposed but not definite date...I do need numbers for booking a table.

Fee's Jail break

2011-05-10T21:30:00.001+01:00

After a week of anxious trouble shooting and panicking the day of the race did not dawn fair and clear as it jolly well should have done but rainy and warm after a torrential downpour and thunderstorm on Saturday. A trip up the hill on Saturday in the aforementioned storm revealed a couple of very loose stony patches and considerable mud at the start of the hill. Huge piles of logs dominate the once lush field at the lead into the hill with sticks ready to flip up and catch the unwary runner (which is why it only seemed to happen to me). Having not been able to run or assess the hill much due to the felling operations left Freya in a quandary...to have a go the day before and have stiff legs or wonder if would as hard as last year...well...go she did both up and down and yes it was as hard as last year. Back to race day...up earlier than anticipated due to husband's doubt on his own ability to drive into Inveraray to put the last minute signs in place (there is a story there which I am willing to share!!). Rosie volunteered to go keep her father company in case he got lost at all. Back home to get breakfast and to collect the other Corners for registration and to lock the two dogs, now in a high state of excitement at all the running trainers being put on in the lobby. Registration inside this year due to the now drizzle so hasty sellotaping of direction signs to be done. Registration started prompt with our first runner arriving five minutes early but went smoothly from there on in with Freya,Toby and Jacquie doing sterling work. Marshals starting to arrive bless them and donning bibs...a sea of yellow in the registration room led me to fear that we may have more officials/marshals than runners but no the final tally is a respectable 36. Briefing of marshals and away they go to be transported into position. On to the photos and runners briefing...Bill is ready with his clock, the jailer is ready with his starter horn, John is ready with his camera and David and Toby prime their iPods....11am. The horn sounds, the camera click and everyone is off...and then I remember.Ah, got to run up the hill now! As race organiser obviously the most responsible place to be is at the back to sweep up and encourage others......
Across the front Green we go in a steady stream and onto the Castle Estate. A few runners have a wee chat as they flow effortlessly past me. Rebecca runs a few paces with me then enters into her and David's own private competition to beat each other.Liz is comfortably running along and pulling away from me. I catch glimpses of her until the 3k and then no more. Into the field and the heat is getting to me so I have to remove the buff from my head and go for it.The marshals are fabulous doing exactly as asked and cheering me on! First Rhia and then David, I am counting them off. I can still see runners in front taking a walk on the steep bits. I know my run is slower than a walk but fear if I begin to walk I shall never start again. Matt ahead of me walks all the way up the hill and I never catch him. I am not sure if I am last but suspect I am. Up to the 3k mark and down come the first finishers. I hear the higher marshals shout as I pass Simone in her marshal position (she is such an expert now I am going to make her chief marshal next year with a special hat!!). No need for warnings as they both jump the scree and continue down the hill. Still trolling up and past Sharon and first Aider Bill at the steepest corner..Bill checks I am okay and I feebly ask for a leg transplant. Runners coming down thick and fast now. Toby chasing David but David is not to be caught. All the local faces passing me now and giving great encouragement including " Garret is not far ahead of you!" Hmmmm. The ground underfoot is now soft and easier going and up I go to the top. Yay! there is Rosie taking pictures and Marcus. Round the tower and down....to discover I am not quite last after all. No, the 69 year old Ian and Mary used to running in flat Delhi and conned into entering by Liz are still making the ascent. Down I go still desperately trying to catch Matt. At about 1km to go I see my boy running back to meet me and to encourage me over the last wee bit. I don't know who thought it was a good idea to put the finish line over the bridge but it was cruel....But hey..the cheer as I went over the line..it was THE BEST THING!!!

Race Report 2011

The Third Inveraray Jail Break run did not enjoy the blue skies of previous years but nonetheless records were smashed as a field of 36 took on the challenge of Dun Na Cuiche. After torrential rain the day before runners were warned of slippery conditions on the route with loose stones and low branches adding to the fun. The front runners were soon circling the tower and making ready for the descent. Peter Davenport (27.04) and Tom Smith (27.49) raced down the hill clearly in the lead with Peter breaking the previous course record by 1 minute and 42s .Paul Thompson (29.00)coming in 3^rd overall and first Male Veteran broke his own record set in 2009 by 14s closely followed by first female Nicola Meekin (29.36) . Nicola took the FS course record set in 2010 by a magnificent 2m 58s. The male Juniors David McAllister (30.37) and Toby Corner (32.27) had a fast and furious race with David coming home 5^th overall, and first Mid Argyll finisher with Toby finishing 8^th. The minutes between 34-36 were busy ones for timekeepers Bill McCallum and Jacquie Patrick with the majority of runners coming in. John Dale (34.19) from Mid Argyll Triathlon Club did the local runners proud by taking the third Male Veteran prize. In the Female Veteran category all prizes stayed in Mid Argyll with Dinah Bosomworth (38.10),Ormsary retaining first place for the second year running. Liz Taylor Feeney (43.10) was next in followed by race organiser Fiona Corner (45.58). First female junior Freya Corner (44.00)and record holder from last year was having a tactical run overtaking Minard’s Kirsten Paterson,(44.08) taking part in her first hill race seconds from the line. Marshals and First aiders provided fantastic support as always and were much appreciated for their cheerful encouragement. Bananas and Water were available at the finish line courtesy of David and Kathy Owen ,Londis, tablet made by Shannon, Argyll Adventure was a hit for the third year running. Spot Prizes were kindly provided by Purdie’s Soap Shop and inveraray jogscotland. The organisers would like to thank His Grace The Duke of Argyll for allowing the race to take part in the beautiful Estate grounds and Inveraray Jail for their sponsorship and prizes. Special thanks to the timekeepers, John Patrick for his photography and Marcus Van Stone for all his help.

Fiona Corner was running the race whilst having chemotherapy treatment for breast cancer as part of her three races to raise funds for The Mid Argyll chemotherapy Unit. Since the Crinan Puffer, her first race, she has raised £462 taking the total to £762. She would like to thank everyone who has sponsored and supported her especially members of the Mid Argyll Triathlon Club and inveraray/Mid Argyll/Ormsary jogscotland groups.

Greetings from Jog Scotland Oban!

2011-05-06T20:48:00.002+01:00

I just wanted to let you all at Jog Scotland Inverary about the Atlantis Leisure Race Series. Our Jog Scotties are looking forward to the Fearnoch 5km race on 24th May. Its a very informal race heading out from the Car Park at Fearnoch Forrest near Taynuilt. It is a no frills run and costs £2 to enter. There are no water stations and no prizes or medals! Its just for the hell of it! The race is run each year so its a good time trial. The route is along forestry commission tracks and has some small hills but isn't too arduous. We welcome joggers/ walkers and runners of all abilities to take part. So please spread the word to like minded individuals who may fancy a run with us.

June 26th is the Oban 10k. Some of the route is road and some along the newly tarmacced bike track. Some hills and again, joggers/ runners and walkers of all abilities are welcome. There will be water along the route and more information, application forms are available at www.atlantisleisure.co.uk.

For those working towards a half marathon the Atlantis half marathon takes place Octobe 2nd so plenty of time to start a training schedule with your jog scotties.

Jog Scotland Oban run out of Atlantis Leisure every Tuesday at 6 - 7pm and Thursdays 6.30 - 7.30 costing £2 and we would love for any jog scotties to join us if they are in the area and looking for running buddies.

All of our local races are listed on the Atlantis Leisure website and also the Atlantis sport and leisure FaceBook page. They also have a news letter that you can sign up for to keep up to date of any up coming events.

Happy Jogging from all at Jog Scotland Oban :O)

Crinan Puffer Race Report

2011-04-17T15:45:00.000+01:00

Crinan Puffer today and after a sleepless-ish week the apprehension was rising and the vivid bad dreams abounded! However the day was PERFECT for running and the support amazing, every one who passed me (and there were many) had a kind motivating word to help me along. The marshals and spectators almost (almost) carried us along but the best moment was after we became convinced that we must have passed the 4 mile marker and where on earth was the 5 mile one ...and then we saw the 6 mile one! This does not often happen to me as I am usually anticipating each marker well in advance. Garret paced and coached magnificently and the only issue was a lack of energy which I can cope with. I was pleased with a 1:18 and managed to raise a fabulous £270 for The Mid Argyll Chemotherapy unit...I am not too sure what was happening at the front of the race but everyone seemed very happy. I can feel tea at The George coming on as a wee treat for all.

Fund raising and training

2011-04-05T14:08:00.000+01:00

I am now embarking on the training for my charity runs due to take place over the next few months or so. I am running for breast Cancer Care and the local chemotherapy unit in Lochgilphead. Both causes very close to my heart at present. The runs are :-

Hopefully I shall post on facebook etc to show the progression of my training...or lack of it! So far this week I managed the slow and steady 5 miles and then last night boot camp replaced a speed session. Quite undecided at present whether it is better to just slog out another long run or do some speed work in the rain..maybe I will have a cup of tea whilst I mull it over.....

Now the shameless begging!

A good day today at the Oban Training Courses.

2010-12-03T12:35:00.000Z

Although I knew that it was inevitable Liz and I walked the course for Sunday this am in the increasingly heavy snow to find the course impossibly icy and too dangerous to even walk and so the Jingle bells run will be postponed until conditions improve. Watch this space!!!

As Thursday was so dire I went out on Friday to run round the planned Jingle bells route and the weather was....just as bad!! It is muddy and puddly so not your best crisp white trainers but it is very nice along the shore even when you cannot appreciate its full beauty because of driving rain and sleet.... honest!! Lollipop shaped route with the start very close to the finish...I shall have to do a bit of fine tuning with the position of start and finish but getting there!!

Tin Farm 5

2010-11-07T18:45:00.001Z

For a change the skies were clear this morning which boded well for another good race at Ormsary over hills, along the shore and pounding the sand and cow fields! It was great to see Kerry again, and Liz and Fiona too joining the Corners at this event. Rosie was in her first adult race and feeling the nerves as the starting horn went. A couple of drips of icy rain came to nothing and although very cold along the first stretch the big hill warmed us up before we plunged into puddles and mud galore. Thoughtfully the organisers plunged us into a small fast flowing river to wash trainers before as we sped down the hill and towards a short beach stretch and then up a short rise to the finish. Liz triumphed as second female veteran, Toby came an excellent 6th over all and third male junior in a very hotly contested category, Rosie fought her was to first female junior with Mum as pacer and Garret finished 20th overall and 11th in category. Kerry was 5th in category and 36th overall (and she wasn't even trying!!)

Times

Toby 36.04
Garret 41.11
Kerry 45.24
Liz 45.30
Rosie 49.04
Fee 49.05
Fiona 59.04
