News Report week-ending 17th January 2010

Due to the severe weather from the middle of December to the middle of January a lot of races were cancelled so races were extremely thin on the ground for the Clydesdale Harriers. Several races were rescheduled: The Nigel Barge 10k at the Garscube Estate has been changed to March 27th and The Jack Crawford 10k in Bishopbriggs has been changed to February 27th.
On the 9th of the month was the BUPA Great Edinburgh Inter District Cross Country Championships at Holyrood Park. These events were invitation only so a high standard had to be achieved at the local cross country championships before selectors would consider anyone to take part.
Clydesdale Harriers were proud to have two runners selected for their events. Under 13 Girl Roisin McShea ran 2600m to finish 17th in a time of 13.07 over the snow covered course. Under 17 Man Peter Bowman ran 3900m to finish 11th in a time of 15.05 in his race.
Both did the Club proud.
Next race for the Club are the rescheduled SVHC Relays at Strathclyde Park this Sunday.
