Mighty Deerstalker
Submitted by Nick Brown on
So it's only a few weeks until another round of running madness in the forests of Traquair. Billed as 10k, its more like 10 miles! Through stinking swamps, along rivers, over slippy obstacles, in the pitch dark while wearing fancy dress. But the wild party afterwards, with live bands and lots of local beer, more than makes up for! Just ask anyone that was there last year.

So who has entered this year? I have. I hope your all camping? And sorted out your fancy dress? My tweeds are festering in a cupboard ready.

I'll run round with a pair of straightners in one hand and a cocktail in the other while chasing after all the young men :-)

Oh you are all so very funny! Just as well I can take it all in good humour! Actually it was the thought of having legs like Scott at the end of this race that has put me off, can't be having legs like that now!

I'm actually growing quite fond of my scars - very manly! It's also given me insight into what it must be like to be a woman, peoples eyes keep peering downwards to look at, thankfully, not my breasts but my heaving man scars.

Scott, you loose more man points for only running the 5k than any scar gains you!

I think Kerry actual has an entry but is just not using it. Similar, since Tim bust his back he is not running now so also has an entry going spare.
Any takers? It really is jolly spiffing fun trotting round the country side of an evening :-)

Submitted by Scott on
3rd place in the diddy race!!! woohooooooo!! Best ever result when racing non runners!! Annoyingly my time would have been good enough to win the race last year, in which case I would have had £50 in my pocket to spend on alcopops!
I can also see Keith, Nick, Dean and Susan in the results so I assume they made it round the beast in one piece.

Great Result Scott -ahead of Ms Mooney ( an Elite Hillracer ! ) - you must be a faster swimmer than her !
Well done also to Keith , Nick , Dean & Susan who did the " big one " - Some nice photos of Keith in his flat cap ( clearly enjoying himself )& Scotty in his " Italian Beret ? ".
