SUMMER SERIES RUN : ERN AUTUMN 10KM

COMMONWEALTH POOL, EDINBURGH, SUNDAY 14th SEPTEMBER 2008

A glorious Sunday morning allowed an enjoyable run round the Autumn 10km route, the last in the current Summer Series Runs. In essence, this is the Little ERN route but with a slight difference; back-to-front and starting and finishing at the Commonwealth Pool. There was a prize (choccies) for the closest to the predicted time, won by Fi. Times below, including the 2007 Little ERN times for comparison. Thanks to Joanne, Ely Barnard and Murdo for marshalling on the day. The route had the benefit of a down-hill start and the big climb was early on but missed out on the great down-hill finish of Little ERN. Strange how the same circuit route can feel so different just by starting in a different place!
