The Southside Six 2012 has sold out in under 24 hours. We are amazed and we intend to spend the next five and a half months preparing for what we hope will be an awesome event!
To all those who didn’t get a place, we have a waiting list in operation; as people withdraw we will make these places available.
To all those who did get a place. Get training – it’s a tough race - but we think you’re going to love it!
We are very pleased to announce that entries for The Southside Six 2012 are now officially open!
There are 350 spaces and once they’re gone, they’re gone. Thanks and we look forward to seeing you all in November!
Once again we’re offering all entrants to The Southside Six 2012 the chance to own a limited edition event T-shirt. For just £6 at the point of entering this quality technical T-shirt can be yours!
With most of the paperwork and admin involved with putting on the event completed, we are ready to officially launch The Southside Six 2012!
The race will take place on Sunday 4th November at 11am, starting at Queen’s Park following a course that takes in:
King’s Park
Linn Park
Rouken Glen Park
Pollok Country Park
Bellahouston Park, and
Queen’s Park again.
Entries will open on Friday 18th May at midday, via entrycentral.com
There will be 350 places available and when they’re gone, they’re gone… so if you want to run, sign up early!
Entry will be from £7 for ScottishAthletics affiliated runners with the popular t-shirt option again being available for an additional £6.
For those unable to run on the day but wanting to be part of the event, we will again be looking for volunteers to help out in the parks and along the route. Please let us know by email if you are able to assist us.
Thanks again to all who made last year’s Southside Six such a success and here’s to making 2012’s even better!
We’ve finally gotten around to tying up all the loose ends, packing away equipment, paying off our debts, eating the left over winegums…!
Despite having such a low entry fee we still ended up with a small surplus and so we’ve made a couple of donations:
Firstly we decided to donate £50 to The Glasgow Triathlon Club. This is a fantastic non-profit organisation promoting health and fitness through running, cycling and swimming! They are a friendly and welcoming bunch who are all about helping people perform at their best no matter what their level.
Secondly we decided to donate £125 to Long Term Conditions Alliance Scotland. We heard of them through a friend of a friend, and they generously donated some stuff for the goodie bags. They are an umbrella group of Scottish charities helping people with long term conditions to live fuller lives.
Thirdly we decided to donate £125 to MND Scotland. They are a Scottish charity dedicated to people with Motor Neurone Disease, their families, friends and carers.
Finally, we’d like to suggest that you put 28th October 2012 in your diaries, there might just be a race on!
NOTE: It looks like we’re going to have to move the date of this years race to Sunday 4th November 2012.
