The 2017 edition of this well organised, local race took place over a slightly shorter (but safer) 6-mile route on a hot, humid evening. The flat course also gives club members a great chance to score lots of points towards the club championship
A record 356 participants took part over what is a regular running route for lots of our club members and the pie, sandwich, crisps and chocolate bar handed out afterwards were enjoyed on the balcony of the Leisure Centre by all.
Well done to everyone taking part (Fiona and Mick narrowly missing out as the podium only had two steps at this race). Full results below.
