I thought it was worth posting what a great sight it was last night to see so many runners out and about round the Quarry Green last night. Really is testament to those involved in running both Jog Scotland and Campbeltown Running Club that you see so many people out enjoying running!
I'll apologise to a couple of people who said hello and all I gave was an out of breath grunt of hello! Especially on the shore side where it was darker and hard to see.
Campbeltown and South Kintyre must have the highest number of runners/joggers in comparison to anywhere in Argyll!! Here is a seed to plant!! This should be used to argue (along with athletics, young people, health etc) the case for a proper running track when the secondary school is eventually built/re-developed. Given the community are on the verge (fingers crossed!) of delivering the 3rd Generation Pitch on Kinloch Green the school in turn will in turn get a 2nd Generation Pitch to accommodate the wide range of sports suited to the PE curriculum so there is nothing wrong with our community having the best of everything and shouting for a running track too! Certainly for another day but something worth considering and I know has been mentioned at the Sports Council meetings before.
In the meantime happy running/jogging! It's certainly a great thing to see developing in Campbeltown and well done to all involved!
