Charlie Kilshaw Memorial 5 Mile Run
This race is in the memory of Charlie Kilshaw. Charlie typified the spirit of Garscube Harriers. He was a lovely man; warm and friendly to members – new and old, went out his way to help others, and represented the club in many races from 2000 till 2012. Charlie was never the fastest runner, but his enthusiasm, determination and effort to run his best endeared him to the hearts of Garscube runners at all races. This event is usually held at the reservoirs at Milngavie Waterworks and is open to Garscube members and friends and family.

The race will involve roughly two loops of the reservoirs, finishing at the James M Gale memorial.
We are also delighted to be able to open the race up again to visitors and it would be great to see our friends from other clubs along on the night.
All the money raised from the event will be split between this year’s club charities. There will be a charity bake sale on the night too.
We hope to see lots of you there!
