Several MRRs were through at Aberdeen and racing in both races.
In the 10k – Kenny Wilson finishing 2nd in a course pb for him. 31.27.
For those who haven’t read Michelle’s story I have put it below 🙈
Great Aberdeen Run 10k…a lesson in how not to run a race! Arrived at 9am to find the race was just starting (not at 10am as I had thought)!! 😱 Bumped into Carol Sim who said there was still time as the JS group was away to start, so a mad dash to pick up my number from race tent and begged them to look after my stuff, stripped off in the street and had a tourist help me get changed, charged down to race line and joined the end of the last start group. Straight into the race with zero warm up, was at the front of the group by the time we got to the harbour with nobody else to run with, but found another guy who had also started late, so we raced each other round. 10k in 43.12mins…what a carry on!
😆 Good route, not a flat course, but I really enjoyed it, despite the chaos at the start! One of these days I will get my act together, but not today…
