Glasgow Uni 5 Mile Road Race 19th Nov 05

4 Millies ventured out into the cold November air for this short sharp roller coaster of a race.

The event is organised by the Glasgow Uni running club. It has good changing facilities and a cafe which combine to offer thermal and nutritional refuge from the elements, especially welcome at this time of year.

The race caters for all standards of runner evident from the near 300 entrants of all ages and abilities. The winner completed the course in less than 25 minutes through to last place in just under the hour.

The race starts in the Garscube Sports Ground opposite the Science Park in Maryhill Rd and winds its way down to Gt Western Rd and back up again via Kinfauns drive before a deceptivley long last mile (just what you need when you are knackered) including a short sharp climb back up towards the Sportsground.

Results, SC 31.04, SJ 34.56, IP 50.2, JMcI 50.2

A good race!
