I for one hope they keep the Great Edinburgh International X-Country race at Holyrood Park. While I have not been there it appears to be a great venue for a great start to the year race. See below for highlights of the racing
Video on Haile Gebrselassie that gives some background on him and where he is today. He is in my estimation if not the greatest distance runner of all time - one of the greatest. Also great to see him back where he started making a difference. Interesting that you find most of the African distance runners going home to make a difference.

I have mentioned before that I am an Ambassador for SFuels but if you are looking for an alternative to those sugary drinks check out SFuels Ultra Endurance Low Carb Drink .
