Pyrenees 7 Summits: July 2013
http://pyrenees7summits.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Having visited the Pyrenees 4 times already, including 2 complete traverses of the. My trip in 2013 was all about filling in a few blanks, and bagging a few summits along the way. The 15-day route covered about 400km from Eyne-Bolquere train station to Gavarnie, with 25,000 metres of ascent. The route largely followed the GR11 once I'd reached Andorra, but also climbed the following 7 summits:. Pic de Coma Pedrosa. Saturday, July 13, 2013. The route was completed from 28th June to 12th July 2013. Day 9 -...

Monday, 7 July 2014. 800 races (of sorts). Here's a full list of my 800 races. As of 5th July 2014. It all started back on 14th May 2000. A lone figure approaching along the Ben Dronaig track. Like Omar Sharif in that haunting scene from Lawrence of Arabia. With tension rising, and wondering whether to stop for a chat, I realised I'd bumped into this chap on Cairnkinna Hill. S brains for top tips on where to start. My back was in agony the whole way round, and I missed the turning below the deer fence co...

Chris's Blog: Paisley 10k
http://chrisupson.blogspot.com/2014/08/paisley-10k.html
Sunday, 31 August 2014. My 5th 10k race in just over 2 weeks after Bella Belter (36:18), SVHC Glasgow 800 (36:57), Irvine Marymass (36:13) and Bute Highland Games (36:12). My 2 targets today were to dip under 36 minutes, and if possible to get 1st V50. I'd not run the Paisley 10k before, but the weather was perfect. Bright and sunny, and not too warm. Plus it was nice to be running on closed off streets for much of the route. I realised as soon as I arrived that my main V50 rival would be Alex Robertson.

Chris's Blog: November 2014

Thursday, 27 November 2014. British and Irish Masters Cross Country. 22nd November 2014 - Wollaton Park, Nottingham. This was my 3rd time representing Scotland at the British and Irish Masters. Previous efforts were Dublin 2010 and Bellahouston, Glasgow 2011. So this was my first time in the Over 50s race. I had already started going down with the lurgy mid-week and woke in the night feeling grim with sore throat, so wasn't confident about the race. My race started at 12:30pm. Start of M50-64 race. Priso...

Chris's Blog: December 2013

Saturday, 7 December 2013. West District Cross Country. The last time I ran the West District Cross Country was in 2011, when it was held twice, both times at Irvine Moor. The first was in January as the postponed 2010 race, and the 2nd was in December at the usual time of year. I missed out on last year's event, which sounded like a mudbath at Ardgowan Estate, Inverkip. Anyhow, in December 2011, I finished down in 76th place ( 2011 results. So I was hoping to do a bit better than that today. Colin Feech...
