Beat the Borders - walk / run
Started off from Woll Golf Course, following the Borders Abbeys Way all the way through Selkirk, then onto Galashiels, then following the Tweed along to Melrose. There was a couple of stops for Paintballing, Archery and a zip slide across the tweed at the end.
As expected this was going to be a mix of running and walking and pretty steady. Alan's back, which was injured prior to the event was really hampering him. To his credit he carried on through the pain. In contrast by jogging 3/4 of the distance with nice stops for cakes and drinks and beautiful views and trails, lead to the event being very enjoyable.
Really good fun, well organised, friendly marshals and raised 3k for Chas.
