The final Thursday night race in this year’s summer series was well attended with a record turnout for this course of 48 runners. This made for a hectic dash to the finish line as 41 runners finished in a 4 minute period. Comfortably ahead of all this was the winner of the race, Amy Frank (46:33), who showed a good return to form in winning her second handicap out the last 3 races. Amy was half a minute ahead of Caroline O’Brien and Megan Miller who were joint second in 47:34 and 42:04 respectively. The fastest run came from Andy Wilkinson who finished in a new PB time of 31:25, there were also PB’s for Kyza Derby and Paul Slatford who finished second and third. In total 9 new course PB’s were set with a further 19 runners completing the course for the first time. Andy McIntosh and Narinder Bains finished closest to their estimated times both picking up maximum points for only being 2 seconds out.

This has been one of the most successful series of Thursday night races with high numbers of members coming along to take part and enjoy the food that has been provided by all 4 of the pubs visited following the end of the race. Th
ere is just one more race in this year’s handicap series which takes place on Sunday 22nd September along the Greenway from Burton Green starting at 11:00. As there is no parking near the start please share lifts if possible and use the car park at the Peeping Tom pub which about half a mile from the start so please make sure you allow enough time to get from the pub to the race start. We will need a maximum of 2 marshals on the course however as I will not be at this race Jackie will need help from around 10:30 handing out race numbers at the start and taking estimated times. If anyone is willing to volunteer please let me know.
