Crieff 10k reports: 2009 | 2008 | 2007 | 2006

Lovely sunny warm day in Crieff. Managed to jog round 3½ minutes quicker than last year, finishing 6th in 37:31. Ellie was 2nd lady in 43:42.

The race winner was never in doubt, with course record holder Robert Gilroy disappearing off into the distance early on. I tussled with the next 3 or 4 runners, arriving at the brow of Laggan Hill with a slender lead in 2nd place. This lead was short-lived as both tailing Carnegie runners - Lewis Lawson and Ian Stewart soon overtook, then followed by Ben Hukins of Aberdeen and John Macnamara of Cambuslang. I tracked Ben for the remaining 6 or 7km, but could never quite close him down, and I couldn't get any closer to the group of 3 ahead of him who seemed to be working together as a team.
