 Who says we don't remember past winners,
right is a picture of Andy Forbes winning the McAndrew Relay for Victoria Park in 1951.
£600 in vouchers to be spent at Achilles
Heel in Great Western Road, Glasgow, will be awarded in prizes to the
winning teams and individuals on the day.
Hope to see you there.
