Jingle Bell Fun Run -
Saturday 6 December
Our Jingle Bell Fun
Run in Paisley
Town Centre was a
great success. Loads of Santas took part in the
3k run around the sights of Paisley., including
the Town Hall, Abbey, Museum, Coats
Memorial Church
and the observatory . Radio Clyde
provided the entertainment and George Bowie took part in the run.
As the event was a Fun Run, there were no official timekeepers, but we
can report that the first senior runner home was David Blane from Garioch Road
Runners in 9 minutes 11 seconds, and Heather Fossett
of Lochwinoch Primary School was the first
junior runner home in just over 13 minutes.
Have a look at our gallery for some great photos of the event. Are you
there?
