The weather conditions couldn’t have been much worse and I’m not sure who suffered more the runners or the spectators. The heavens opened and it came down in bucket loads. So a really big well done to Tom Jordan and Steph Laurance for completing the race and with smiles on their faces…most of the time! Tom, who had run the…

On a beautiful warm and summer evening – sorry, that was just wishful thinking – it was cold, windy and ended in a heavy downpour!

London Marathon – April 2024
The weekend finished off in style with two excellent times from Joanne Watkins and Emily Beavis who were both running the marathon distance for the first time. To break 3.30 and 4 hours on the first attempt is amazing. Joanne also achieved a “Good for Age Entry’ for 2025 although, at the moment, she is probably saying “never again”! Joanne…

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.

Fran has been struggling lately with work commitments, a bit of a niggle and illness so hopefully all will…
