Results for Harborough 5, 16-Jun-2015

By Rob on June 19, 2015

Eight Sphinx runners took part in the 6th race of the EMGP Series at Market Harborough. More like ‘Marmite Harborough’ this one, as you either, like Jackie, love it, or, like Dave, hate it. Indeed Mr West didn’t stop moaning about the hills tonight, but don’t worry my friend, it’s Weedon next week and that’s as flat as they come, makes Silverstone look like Snowdon,10K PB guaranteed :).

In the race itself, pride of place has to go to Andrejs, who goes from strength to strength with back to back 5 mile PB’s. Last night he finished 3rd overall in a tremendous time of 27:41. And all this in a pair of £30 ‘Sports Direct’ trainers that are over a year old! At least he’ll be able to get a decent pair with all the running vouchers he’s won 🙂

Next race next Tuesday http://mcs.open.ac.uk/mkac/emgpweedon10k.htm Meet at club at 5.45 p.m., don’t forget your crampons!
