Dunking in Dunfermline

If you thought that all road race Championship races were flat, fast affairs – think again! Although most certainly not in the league of the Skye half the day before, the Dunfermline race had its fair share of hills, twists & turns. Add in over 5 miles of cycle paths devoid of anyone but racers & a few folks manning a water station & it becomes clear that the revised Scottish Championship course is suited best to the mentally strong & internally motivated runner!
Here are accounts from Niamh Devlin & Jenny MacLean, plus results for your delectation.

Seaside Rambles (Edinburgh 1/2M)

Women's Scottish 1/2M Podium
