Spring Argyll Run - 13th March 2011
Discussion
Fellow PHers, the start of the run season is nigh. I have pulled together another route which takes in some diverse and pretty likely deserted roads around Argyll.
To adhere to the accepted standard..
The route has been designed with portions to suit all: some long straights some tight and windy bits and just about all of it with stunning scenery.
I have posted a short sample of the route on youtube as a taster!
http://www.youtube.com/user/6C4GTS#p/a/u/0/BMWY4Zg...
Route start is 20 miles from Glasgow 35 miles from Stirling and 65 miles form Edinburgh.
Route is a 190 miles round trip.
Route will be sent out to runners a week ahead.
I have made arrangements for a sit down lunch stop: menu details and cost to follow, but no up front costs. Couple of other stops at scenic bits with coffee or a can of coke.
All are welcome from countach to corsa!!
Can't guarantee the weather - it's Scotland
For any newbies wondering what it's likely to be like look at the vids from the last Argyll Run in November 2010: http://www.youtube.com/user/6C4GTS#p/a/u/4/2VcrZxB...
Sign up in the usual fashion!!
Cheers B
