Scheduled Runs over the Festive Period
December 15th, 2008A FEW RUNS HAVE BEEN ORGANISED IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS TO KEEP YOU ON YOUR TOES!
Lauderdale Limpers invite you to be their guests in a wee 3 mile gallop around Lauder tomorrow evening (16th Dec) 7pm at the Leisure Centre for a 7.30 start - if anyone is interested, please get in touch with either Rosi or Graeme Sutherland, so that Graeme can sort your handicap.
The next Hill running group run is scheduled for 27th Dec for a festive run a round the Eildons; The starting point for the run will be the Rhymer’s Stane. Turn off the Melrose bypass almost opposite the Melrose turn nearest the A68 up the old road to Newtown. There are a couple of lay bys about half a mile up before the road is blocked. Start time 9.15 am.
Don’t forget the Gala to Lauder social run over the hills on 2 January 2009 when we start from Tweedbank and take the Southern Upland Way to Lauder. Start time to be confirmed but from 9.30 onwards to ensure you’re in Lauder in time for 2 x bacon rolls and coffee/tea which will be supplied this year by the Lauderdale Hotel at a cost of £5 per head. (All runners to pay their own and make their own travel arrangements)

Happy New Year to one and all and well done to everyone who crossed the hills to Lauder this morning - hope you all got home in one piece, especially Davy Darroch who appeared at the Lauderdale just before 1 o’clock having set off from Tweedbank at 11am, one and a half hours late!!! Well done for doing the solo run Davy and not getting lost! Tina - I have your gloves! You’d left them on the bar!! Rosi
Tony Westbury Says:
Thanks to all those involved in the organisation of the run to Lauder. Myself and pals from Melrose had a great time and we’ll definitely be back next year as there is more downhill!
rosi capper Says:
Good to hear that Tony - and about that vest……do you ever come to the track on a Thursday night? If not, I can send one to you if you give me your chest size, as long as you don’t mind that information up on the website! Give me a ring on 01578 740269 if you’d prefer it remains confidential! Rosi C
Dianne Lauder Says:
I just wanted to thank all the Gala Harriers who braved the elements on Saturday and supported me at Holyrood. Your shouting helped me to get round when I thought I had nothing left; I really appreciated the support.
Being involved in a Club with such strong camaraderie and team spirit can only be good for the future of the Club and it’s youngsters.
Thanks again, Dianne
