Results for Malvern Midsummer Marathon, 25-Jun-2011

By Rob | June 27, 2011

Kevin Naughton and Trevor Clarke represented Sphinx AC in a very hilly off-road marathon.
In Kevin’s own words:
A 26.2 mile route which takes in the whole range of the Malvern Hills. Steep ascent/descent made for difficult going in the final stages from mile 19. Seemed to be more ascent than descent!

Completed in a time of 6.09 hours

Conditions: Warm & sunny, excellent visibility

First class checkpoint hospitality especially at the halfway point in Ledbury, a real banquet. Then a hearty meal at the finish

This was Trevor’s first attempt at off road long distance

Official results are here (or will be – at the time of writing, they were still being prepared):
