Firstly, a massive apology to the couple of runners who were left behind as members made their way to the race start tonight (Tuesday, 6th May). The club strives to ensure nobody is left alone during training sessions and will endeavour this never happens again in the future.

 

Onto the race itself, and the glory of being first over the finishing line went to Beth Anderson. Her time of 21:07 good enough to hold off the strong challenge from 2nd place runner Lysanne Jurriansen.

Beth’s reward for finishing 1st is a free place in the 2014 Great North 10K race :thumbsup:

 

The first male member to finish the race, in 7th place overall, was Ian Walton. Ian also receives a place in the Great North 10K race :thumbsup:

 

Quickest time of the evening went to Davy Wright, who completed the two-mile course in 11:22. (Unfortunately, all Davy is going to get is a pat on the back next time I see him ;-) ).

 

 

As always, big thanks to the race marshals and organisors. I keep saying it, but without their help the race just wouldn’t go ahead  :good:

 

Race 3 of the series is scheduled for Tuesday, 3rd June.
