Before we talk about the 30th edition of the Linlithgow 10k, a couple of special shout outs…
Earlier this month, we had 2 ‘graduates’ from Let’s Go Linlithgow participating in the GREAT NORTH RUN. What an awesome progression from the LGL programme.
Congratulations go to Lyndi McGinty (2 hr 37), and Karen Graham (3 hrs 10)
And what about John Redding?!
John was running at the Berlin marathon on Sunday morning, and achieved a lifetime best of 2:37:32!
According to Power of 10, John’s annual marathon numbers look like this:
John's unstoppable march to sporting immortality
As you can see, if the current rate of improvement continues, John will smash the 2hr barrier in 2035. Congraulations John!
30th edition of the Linlithgow 10k
Okay I’m going to call this one as the best ever. From the participant’s perspective, it was SO well organised, the people we SO nice and the atmosphere was SO good.
Massive thanks and congratulations to the organising committee and all the volunteers - you made it look easy, although we know it wasn’t.
Just some of our superheroes:
You’ve probably all seen the masses of excellent photos on social media, so I’m not going to copy them here, although I also managed to capture some video - from inside the race:
…and at the finish line:
