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):
