We're running up that hill, running up that mountain... eh??
Can't beat a bit of Bush.
A 31-strong contingent from Jog Scotland Strathclyde Park took Girona by storm at the end of May, not to mention making a lot of noise and taking away quite a few trophies from the Tossa de Mar 12k. That Tossa race included a climb of 650 feet in 4 painful kilometres while the last day saw a 90minute run punctuated by a 900 foot climb to the Castell of St. Miguel.
Sadistic? slightly, but not intentional!
I learned quite a few things during that action-packed weekend:
1) That i run up more hills on a daily basis that i realised (although i am beginning to realise now having a few extra pounds to shed and almost no training in the past month).
2) That you can still have a great time socially, eat, drink, and be merry, yet still face new challenges, try things for the first time - and come out the other end happy (and tired!).
3) Whas like us? Gie few an thur aw deed!
Many thanks to Jim D and all the gang, and congratulations on that attitude to run up that hill, no matter how long and high it may be! All in, its probably the most 'Total' Sports Experience we've had. Cheers!
