Magnificent 7
Migo Mile for August It was a small turn out for the August Migo Mile. A consequence of a busy few days of racing in the local area: Canal Canter from Springburn Harriers on Thursday, then 3K on The Green and the Bellahouston 10k on Friday. Saturday brought the OUT-Run in Glasgow’s West End, and the awesome Tom Robb Memorial Trail Race in the Carron Valley. Magnificent 7 The small field led to runners experiencing […]
Migo Mile For July
A Horrible Wee Race Another month, another Migo Mile – and a new tag line! It is well know that the 3K On The Green is known as “The best wee race in Scotland”. After today’s event, we’ve been dubbed “A horrible wee race”!! There was the addendum “But I loved it”. We’ll definitely take that – “A Horrible Wee Race That You’ll Love” – thanks Barry 🙂 For such a wee race we had […]
Migo Mile for June
A Good Sunday Morning It is fantastic to be back. Back putting races on, and back with Migo Mile. Having hosted the Virtual Migo Mile during the lockdown years, this is our first time hosting the “in-person” Migo Mile as Acorn Trails (previous editions were hosted by The Run Bible) Back to basics, and trying to get the event back into people’s thoughts and calendars, we had just 20 runners sign up for this free […]
Migo Mile for March
Migo Mile For March March motored by! The Clyde Stride Ultra Marathon ballot took place and with the virtual South By Five in full swing, the Migo Mile for March was soon upon us. With glimmers of light appearing at the end of the tunnel, we hope this will have been the penultimate virtual version. All being well, in contrast to May 2020 being our first virtual, hopefully May 21, will see us host the […]
Migo Mile For February
Migo Mile Migo Mile for February ran alongside the last week’s challenge of Absolutely Febulous, Short and Sweet. This challenge was to run a mile, so tied in well with Migo Mile with a few doubling up to do both. February can be a variable month for weather. Three years ago, saw the Beast From The East bury Glasgow in snow late February. That would have made an interesting race report! Fortunately for 2021 the […]
Virtual Migo Mile for January
Virtual Migo Mile for January January’s Migo Mile was once again a virtual event. The first time the Mile has been held under the Acorn Trails brand since the switch on 1st January from TRB. Trialling a new entry and results system we teamed up with MilesAway to take the details for your free entry. We would love to know what you thought? It was a virtual race under tricky conditions – patchy ice across […]
Barking back to 2019 – a look back at a year
Barking back to 2019 2019..Where to start?! The year that my life turned around and upside down. It has been epic on so many levels. Goodness knows what I was up to this time last year. Probably pottering about on the farm, chatting to the horses and avoiding the pesky cat gang (and stealing their food!) Life was ok, but it was nothing compared to the exciting adventure that it has since become! Top highlight […]
