I was going to enter and then stupidly booked the Hubby a trip to the Edinburgh Scottish whisky experience for his 40th (it's a surprise!) on the same weekend and I don't even like whisky!......doh! Maybe 2016! Enjoy!

I'm just about to start w9r1 tomorrow and hopefully will be able to get up to 5k in a respectful time by September :)

Thanks for posting that, I'm just about to go out for Wk8 Run3 and have been looking for a 5k I can aim for afterwards.

Does anyone know what time the race starts I can't see it on the website and it has taken me through to payment without telling me on the application part of the site.

It is the first race of the day as the kids one is after it so I think it should be somewhere between 9 and 10
