View My Training Log
After the Scottish Gas 5km race in August 2005. Not a great time, but for me 32 minutes was better than the 35 minutes (10 % Better!) in the race the year before. At least if you are starting slowly, you can only get better.	Name:  David McCarlie Gender:  Male Profession:  Accountant Age:  47 Height:  6'2" Location:  Broxburn, West Lothian
About me:  45yo Accountant from Scotland. Used to run a lot when I was a student, 20 years ago, and entered many races to half marathon level. Sadly, 15 years stuck behind a desk and working long hours has left my athletic days a very distant memory. Why do I run:  I love the solitude, the music from my MP3 player and the chance to clear my mind of the day's events. Why I started running:  To lose weight and get back into shape. Sick fed up of being heavy and lacking energy. I loved the excitement of a race and the friendly atmosphere.
