Great going, Bill. Nearly there

Only two more for me right at the beginning of October ..
#71 -- 1/Oct _ Giffordtown 5K
#72 -- 7/Oct _ Camperdown ParkRun
.. making seventy-two so far.

Have already put in an order to the goldsmith elves
for them to start fashioning a new Golden Syringe

[r.thornton]

Managed another five to take me up to seventy-seven so far :-
#73 - - 4/Nov _ Craigtoun ParkRun
#74 - - 5/Nov _ The Bob Stark Run, Falkland
#75 - - 12/Nov _ Silvery Tay Trail, Wormit
#76 - - 18/Nov _ Craigtoun ParkRun
#77 - - 25/Nov _ E.Diistrict X-C League, Alloa.

It'll soon be time to tally up for the year and log your totals.
Although it looks like Bill Duff will be the "run away" winner of
this year's Golden Syringe (the goldsmith-elves are hard at work) we still
want to know how you've all been doing and who to look out for next year

[KarenCampbell]

Bill Duff has cracked the 100 races and is still going strong... November looked like this...

99 01/11Glenrothes Tri Halloween Race Beveridge Park
100 02/11 Bill Duff 100th Race 5km Falkland

107 19/11 Chorley Fire Service 10km

[r.thornton]

Well done, (Ton-up)Bill

107 already; worth noting that we think that 117 would be
a "Race Junkie" record. Plenty festive races in December so
go for it Bill and include everything.
ps. you still only get one Golden Syringe

[r.thornton]

Only three more in December
and now out of commission
so my total for 2017 will be eighty
(which is my best for five years)
#78 - - 2/Dec _ Camperdown ParkRun
#79 - - 15/Dec _ St.Andrews Nightmare
#80 - - 17/Dec _ Dundee Hawkhill Harriers Handicap

We're waiting on Bill's final total (remember they all count to us so get them all added on)
but we still want to hear everybody else's totals .. boys or girls .. did anybody else top 100?

[KarenCampbell]

Final update for my hero Bill Duff for his mental and physical challenge for race running in 2017. Although his aim was all paid races with bibbed numbers, he decided that once he'd broken the 100 he's throw in a few parkruns as well. Here goes....
108 02/12 Dundee Santa Run
109 03/12 St Andrews Christmas Sleigh Race
110 09/12 Perth Santa Run
111 15/12 Nightmare Series Race 3 Beach St Andrews
112 17/12 Pitreavie Jingle Bell Run
113 26/12 Ayrdynamic Turkey Trot 10km
114 31/12Chilly Willy Hogmanay Run

Then the park runs are
115 04/11 Edinburgh Park Run
116 10/12 Perth Park Run
117 16/12 Kirkcaldy Park run
118 23/12 Kirkcaldy Park Run
119 25/12 Falkirk Park Run
120 30/12 Plean Park Run (this one might have been cancelled....)

Huge well done Bill
