RUNNERS in Peeblesshire who are considering taking part in this year’s Great Scottish Run are being urged to sign up now to avoid disappointment.

Fewer than 500 places remain for the half marathon, with spaces in the 10K also nearing capacity.

Both events will take place on Sunday, October 1, as over 30,000 runners of all ages and abilities take to the streets of Glasgow.
