On Sunday 26th April, over in Greece, Angus Gray finished 13th, 3rd MV40 in 2:41:57 at the Thessaloniki Marathon. At the Rhodes Marathon & Half Marathon, there were brilliant runs by Laura Loddo 4:03:19 Mara PB & Gianluigi Re 1:44:48 HM PB. Bravi a tutti e due! Sunday was also of course the big one, the TCS London Marathon. An historic world first sub-2 hour major, a women’s World Record, even a Scottish record. A warm one to contend with, so many congratulations to the Bellas lucky enough to take part: Bryan Kerr 2:38:10, Ruairi Barfoot 2:39:32, Kenny Osborne 2:43:23, Iain Murphy 2:52:29, Jamie Robinson PB 2:55:28, Mark Young 2:59:21, Chelsea Cruikshank 3:02:41, Lucy Prior PB 3:11:36, Alan Chalmers PB 3:15:00, Claire Wharton 3:26:13, Tomoyo Fujiwara 3:30:25, Christie Lamb PB 3:29:43, Anne Campbell PB 3:37:42, Debi Scott 3:55:22 & Gillian Gallagher 3:55:46 PB (GN vests), David Pattison 4:01:05, Shirley Wieland 4:46:29.

Saturday 25th April saw the latest running of the 42 Mile ‘Devil o’ the Highlands’ Foot Race. Tyndrum to Fort William on the West Highland Way, and thankfully, the weather was good for our Bellas! Well done to Bryan Mulgrew 6:47:09, Ben Nurse 8:00:21 (Glasgow Frontrunners vest), Kenny Mcdonald PB 9:48:22 & Della Lansley 12:20:16. It was also the inaugural Beecraigs Backyard Ultra on the same day. As many 4.167 Mile laps as you can muster every 60 min until there’s only one person left. Stephen McQuade took this on and ran a sensational 20 Full Laps, 83.3 miles, cumulative time 17:58:48, just shy of 85 miles total, a PB. Wow!
