Moorfoot Boxing Day Runs

..or alternatively slug it out at the Sales !!!

 

The annual Moorfoot Boxing Day Runs (add jokes about dodgy Christmas Day digestive problems here...) are upon us....

Our three course Menu offers....

Run to the Mast
Seven and a bit-ish hill run up to Dunslair Heights at a sociable pace (90mins-ish) - regular stops to regroup - and back to the Glentress Peel Café for coffee/cake/a blether

Meet at Gytes Leisure Centre Peebles 9:45am for a sharp 1000 start.
Dress accordingly for a slowish run with stops - it is often snowing on the tops - December in the hills - you have been warned...
Should be back down at the Peel café for 1130ish...

Handicap Fun Run

While the seniors slog up to the mast on Boxing Day, all juniors (min. age 9) AND Mums and Dads looking to run off some over-indulgence, are invited to take part in a 2mile handicap fun run on the new path to Glentress where we will meet up with the seniors in the Peel café for coffee/juice and cake(s) at about 11.30am.

 

Meet at the Hydro stables entrance ready for an 11am start, setting off at intervals, slowest first, fastest last. The finish will be just before the main road opposite Glentress (with a couple of adults there to help with crossing the road.) Rule No.1 - Handicapper Gregor has the final say . Rule No.2 - no-one is allowed to say “snow fair” if unhappy with the handicapping. Rule No.3 - Finlay, you are getting chopped after romping home the last two years! Spot prize for the most colourful/flashy gear.

Pure Banter

For those who don't fancy the 'run' bit, just meet up at the Peel café for 1130 and join in the blethering bit...all welcome...
