Summary
10k tips l For some last-minute training tips ahead of the Glasgow Women's 10k, head along to Run 4 It on Thursday. The running shop, based in Tiso's Glasgow Outdoor Experience, is hosting a night filled with nutritional advice, injury prevention tips and massage therapy to ensure your fitness level and general wellbeing are at their peak on race day. May 6 from 7pm.
Tickets are free, but booking is strongly recommended. Tel: 0141 559 5450 or e-mail Glasgow@run-4-it.com charity l If you're not quite ready for the 10k race on May 16 but are keen to do your bit for charity, then why not join in one of the Race for Life 5k events. There are 12 of these charity fun runs (or walks, depending on your preference) taking place in Scotland in the coming months. The focus is definitely on fun over fitness, and there's always a real sense of girl power. If you get a group of 15 people together you can also enter as a team. But if you can't quite go the distance, don't worry - Cancer Research is also looking for volunteers to help out on race days. The first event is in Inverness on May 9 at 2pm, and the last is in Falkirk on July 18 at 11am. For an entry form or more information on races in your area, tel: 08705 134 314 or visit www.raceforlife.org To find out about volunteering, tel: 0207 009 8860 or e-mail race.volunteer@ cancer.org.uk water sports l If you're brave enough to face the water in the Scottish springtime, then you'll definitely enjoy taking part in this water sports open day.

Sessions are available all day, and there will also be demonstrations by the Royal Navy Sea Cadets, the RNLI Fast Rescue Craft and the Police Marine Unit.
