Varvetmilen Goteborg 10k – April 2024
Fran (Frances Cooke) who was using this race as a build up to a half Marathon in May, finished in 46.30. She was hoping to be pace perfect and today she got it spot on (7.27, 7.25, 7.26, 7.30, 7.28, 7.30.). Fran has been struggling lately with work commitments, a bit of a niggle and illness so hopefully all will…

Trowse 10k – April 2024
A big turn out for the “popular” Trowse 10k on Sunday 7 April. Not one person said they enjoyed the run and we’re not surprised. We know it’s an undulating course but then add in the blustery conditions it made it impossible to run a pb time although there were some very near misses. Trophy winners were Michael, Carl, Amy…
National U/17 5k Road Race – April 2024
Billy Eccles, running a year under age, finished 3rd in 16.11. Dad Michael reported: The top 2 got a big gap early on but Billy, who was in a group, had a battle for 3rd all the way round but he used his strength on the final hill, just before the home straight, to pull away from the others. It’s…
Fakenham 5k – March 2024
We had 11 members out for this Easter Sunday race. This race is a great for spectators but not so good for the runners as it’s 5 laps with a hill thrown in and on a very twisting course, plus the front runners have to keep lapping the not so fast runners, so it’s certainly not a pb course. Although…
St Albans 10k – March 2024
We had one member out at the St Albans 10k on Good Friday but on what turned out to be a muddy course and in poor weather conditions, we’re sure Stephen Lee will be happy with his 10th 40+ place and his 43.09 time. His comment afterwards was “that was horrendous”! Roll on the next race. Well done Stephen.
