We are delighted to say that a few teachers from Marr College took part in the Glasgow Half Marathon on the 2nd of October . I managed to interview some of the runners to find out more about their experience !
Mrs L Stevenson :
• Time taken : 2 hours 7 mins
• Place : 5051st ( out of 10,000 !)
Mr . Moncrieff :
• Time taken : 1 hour 56 mins
• " Felt great to run the event after Covid has postponed it the last couple of years , but was very tired and forgot how hard it was !"
Mr Marshall :
• Time taken : 2 hours 12 mins
• Place : 5517th
• “ Felt like I ’ d never want to do it again ! I ’ ve obviously got a short memory as next year I ’ m doing it again ! So , on balance delighted ! I prepared with the Marr running club every Wednesday and followed Dr Spencer ’ s training plan .”
We want to say well done to all the runners :
Mr Docherty , Mr Marshall , Mrs Ledingham , Mrs Stevenson , Mr Moncrieff , Mr Hamilton , Mrs Fraser , Mr McAughtrie and Mrs Donnelly .
