Great Time Guaranteed At Gryffe 10K
This Renfrewshire 10K is a classic in the spring race calendar...
Let's look ahead to spring and the prospect of taking part in a real community orientated 10K that also happens to be a 'Renfrewshire classic' - the Rotary Club of Gryffe Valley 10K is set for May 21 this year and entries are now open!
This long-established event is well regarded thanks to some fantastic organisation from the Gryffe Valley Rotary Club as well as a delicious post race spread! Always a charity affair, this year's race will be run in aid of CHAS (Children's Hospices Across Scotland) with all profits going directly to the cause.
Starting and finishing in Houston Park, the race will then head out on to the country roads around the villages of Houston, Kilmacolm and Bridge of Weir making it an extremely scenic course with marshalling and distance markers every 1K. Organisers are always keen to stress that this is a race for all abilities from serious runners to novices, although there is always a good contingent from local club Kilbarchan AAC and it is hoped that there will once again be a swarm of yellow vests on the start line!
The aforementioned 'great spread' offers runners and spectators sandwiches, home baking, tea and coffee at the end of the race. All in all, this sounds like a great local event that has plenty to offer someone looking for a springtime 10K.
