This is the second session the lads have had over the last couple of months.
Firstly a massive thanks To Rosie, for the yoga session stretching every muscle in the lads bodies (there was a few groans in that session)
We would also like to thank Jody for the sound bath session with both these classes complimenting each other.
A fantastic night for our outer and inner self really helping our mental health.

Guiding us over full and half marathons, Tough mudder, several West Highland Ways. Austria 2012 and Everest base Camp 2016 and many other events/trips in between.
We are sure Davie would like to thank many people who have helped the club over the years
Way to many to mention (yous know who you are)
He’s not only is the director of the club he is also A mentor and a rock and for us all to lean on, constantly there with help and advice for every member old and new.
Davie is constantly training with the lads these days sharing his knowledge and wisdom
Which is invaluable to us all.
This great club would not be where it is today without him.
Although we know not 1 person can be bigger than the club it would be hard to find someone who’s played a bigger part in holding the club together over these recent years.
We are sure all his family and friends must be extremely proud of him and we are privileged to have him as our gaffer.
Keep up the good work
Do Well Doubt Not.
C’mon the Calton.

Another T-shirt celebration.
We are sure our founder Brycie would be proud of this one.
Well done to Gibby earning his 3 months t-shirt at Calton Athletic.
A fantastic achievement.
This is a guy who came through our program in the 90’s alongside guys like Big Mainy, Andy Clark and Colin Nelson aswell as countless others. Without these guys we are sure the club wouldn’t be where it is today.
Although he has a good bit more than 3 months in recovery, he knows all to well the rules at the Calton.. 3 months in earning a T-shirt.
In that time he’s done numerous hill walks including the cobbler and has a love for camping outdoors across Scotland.
Constantly at his Calton Meetings he’s also given back to the community through his other related work.
We are sure all his family and friends will be as proud of him as we are.
Keep up the good work

Well done to Harvey reaching his first year in recovery.
This has took some effort and commitment constantly at his meetings.
He started off doing the Santa dash last year a 10k run around the Glasgow Green.
Then after doing our famous carman hill New Year’s Day run, he went back up the following week to do it again with some of the lads who had missed it.
Constantly working hard on himself Harvey then went on to do The Edinburgh half marathon at the end of May. Also taking part in the Live it for Lee triathlon.
He then started training throughout the months ahead for the West highland way and completed this with the group in September.
We are sure all his family and friends will be as extremely proud of him as we are.
Keep up the good work Brother.
