Yet again this great race attracted a great turn out from our members despite clashing with the Abbey Dash this year. The weather forecast was poor to terrible but in the end it was not a bad morning for a run. 19 members chased club championship points around this tough 10 miler. There are 4 main hills on the course. The “Birstwith Brute”, the “Swincliffe Swine”, the “For Fawkes Sake” and the “Holly Bank Hell” to finish. The reward for scaling all these climbs was a nice tech tee, 5 bars of chocolate and a cheer from Lucy Churm and Jill Hudson who travelled to support our runners. Given the hilly profile of this race, we would not expect anyone to get a PB, however Ben Coldwell managed a very fast time and did just that. So did Niamh Jackson and Vicki Hipkiss. Well done Ben, Niamh and Vicki. Jemma Roe recorded her first time at this distance and lives to tell the tale!.
