Saturday 28 June
It was a dreadful day weatherwise for the club walk leaving from Bathgate Park. 13 hardly souls left in rain but it soon disappeared. We headed for Forbury Road and the to St Clair to head around to Second Beach. We came back via Kettle Park, Victoria Road, Prince Albert Road and finally Macandrew Road to Bathgate Park. Distance around 7km.

I picked up Ruth Harley from Strathallan Street at 9.30am and we headed off for Balclutha to walk 10km as part of the Half Marathon event leaving Rosebank Lodge. As we got there at 10.25am we quickly registered, had a bite to eat and then did a warm up walk down to Rosebank School, past my old flat in Naish Street, up Lewin Street back to Rosebank Lodge. (around 2 kms).
60 competitors left Rosebank Lodge at 11.45am. It was down the hill, along the heavy truck detour and across the bridge. We went up Cromer Street and left into open country. We went down to the road beside the Clutha River, back across the bridge, going back along the streets we started on. Time 1:20:07. The weather was brilliant considering the awful weather forecast.
