Simon Partridge running under par with a head cold finished just 9 seconds outside his pb time in 36.44.
Faith Viney, our own pocket rocket, took an impressive 2 mins off her previous time and finished 3rd lady in 39.07. This also gave her the ladies club record.
Matt Stone struggling with a calf problem ran 41.25.
Martin Adcock had a battle with Sabina Spence and out did her in a sprint finish. Not very gentlemanly Martin! Martin finished in a men’s age club record of 41.57 and Sabina in a pb time and a new age club record of 42.04.

Now we come on to the half marathon squad who were running this race as part of their build up. It’s great to see you all working well together and encouraging each other.
