Sphinx AC were represented at multiple ParkRun events over the weekend. The searing heat and the prospect of Northbrook’s 10k event the next day explains the reduced numbers and more relaxed times.

5 Sphinx runners made their way to Desford for this 7 mile road race in the Leicestershire countryside, an event organised by Desford Striders.

In very warm conditions Quentin Henry finished an excellent third in 44:45 and Mitch Timms was 17th and 2nd M55 in 52:29.

Milton Keynes 10k 10 Sphinx AC runners made their way down the M1 for the last in this year’s EMGP Series, the Milton Keynes 10K. This event has to be one of the highlights of the annual running calendar (not!). The Milton Keynes course is at best non-descript; grey and geometric, it is a series of paths and underpasses with 90 degree turns, starting and finishing in a field. It is however a popular event, mainly because it’s prize-giving night.

Another wet night that has become the feature of Sphinx AC races this month did not deter the 34 hardy souls that turned out to run the 3rd race in this year’s summer handicap series. The wet conditions didn’t prevent another glut of personal best times for the course as 10 runners improved on previous times from Fiona Quinn taking a massive 8 minutes off her time from last year to Ashley Miles who improved his PB by 1 second.
