"A FRIENDLY RUNNING CLUB THAT WELCOMES ATHLETES OF ALL AGES AND ABILITIES"

 

it is with regret that we report death of John Brown, stalwart supporter of Wednesday nights, from heart trouble two weeks ago.  I found out on Thursday morning and was able to attend his funeral at noon that day. 

 

In his eulogy, John’s son Patrick, mentioned how important running was to John – including running in London Marathon (for Combat Stress) and the Cape Wrath Challenge – to which he introduced me. 

 

A thoroughly nice guy who it was a pleasure to run with, and to share a pint with after pub runs.  

 

John had time for everyone, and to get to know all those in the group.  Our thoughts are with his wife, Shona, and the family.
