Results for the Banbury 5, 09-Jun-2015

By Mitch | June 10, 2015

An excellent turn-out of 11 Sphinx runners made the trip to Banbury for the 5th race of the EMGP Series.

Outstanding running by Andrejs saw him finish in 5th place with a 5-mile PB (27:46). PB’s also for Jamie (32:09), Dave (34:23), Mary (40:05) and Lisa (41:48). What an excellent move this has been by the club in appointing Mr Salazar as head coach during his sabbatical.

Best performance of the night goes to Lisa, however, who hammered Jamie in the race back to the car.

Bravest performance went to Andy Mc for taking the coldest shower of the Series so far… (Tom Dable informed us afterwards that the hot showers were just next door – a tremendous sporting gesture from one of our fellow club runners). Thanks to Andy Mc, Mr Bench and Rob for driving.

Next race Harborough 5 Tuesday 16th http://mcs.open.ac.uk/mkac/emgpharborough5.htm

Usual travel arrangements, 5.45 p.m at the club for car share.
