East Kilbride club Calderglen Harriers host hundreds of runners for trail race

Hundreds of senior and junior runners descended on the town’s Calderglen Country Park last weekend for Calderglen Harriers’ annual trail races.

And East Kilbride Athletic Club star John Fergusson was the big winner on the day, as he took home the 10k trophy in an impressive 38 minutes and 10 seconds, in a field of 162.

The Harriers hosted 1k, 3k and 5k events on top of the main event and youngsters from across the district, and further afield, got involved in the action on June 24.

Springburn Harriers ace Gregor McNaught (12:17) took the 3k U12 crown after finishing ahead of EKAC’s Jack McMillan (13:21) and Calderglen Harrier Finaly James McMonegal (14:05).
