South By Five – Bellahouston Park
So Bella By Five came around. The fifth of our six race South By Five series. The Bellahouston Park course is a strange one for us, in that it is 100% tarmac. A wee hangover for when the series was designed with Alex at his previous role with The Run Bible. However we loved the route, and know you guys do too, so we kept it. And what it lacks in mud, it makes up in […]

Life was ok, but it was nothing compared to the exciting adventure that it has since become! Top highlight […]

I’ll just finish off that sleep thinks I.. Oh no, we were stopped and parked up again in minutes! Just what was going on here? Mum and dad start […]
