Running Club News 21/7/14

It was an extremely hot evening this evening which made it very uncomfortable for the runners. It was clear no records were going to be broken on this, the final attempt at this route. In fact many regular runners struggled to complete the route without a breather as the heat and lack of breeze made conditions very tough. Well done to those who pushed through to make it non stop and well done to all those who came along and attempted the run in this heat. It was still an enjoyable events all agreed and the route along the beach was probably the best move in these conditions with a small sea breeze.

Of the runners only Mike, Greg and Sandy improved on last weeks times. Mike took 29 seconds off last weeks time but it wasnt enough to beat his PB. Sandy achieved his course PB taking 3 seconds off last week and finally Greg was nearly a minute faster after he completed this weeks run non-stop and with a great sprint finish.

For Pete and Juliette it was their first attempt at this route and both did very well. Pete, still nursing an injured knee, completed the route in a very quick 8m 28s per mile, very impressive. Juliette did fantastic to keep going round the whole course, even though she wanted to stop on several occasions. Her 10m 38s per mile was very good!

Well done also to Sue, Jo, Alistair and Charles. In particular Jo, who finished in a sub-10mins per mile average was very impressive. Charles and Sue encouraged each other round in a very sociable run which has very much been the theme for this route. Alistair wasn’t able to keep up to last weeks fantastic performance but it was still a very good run.

 

Well done to you all. Next week Bruce, with Mikes assistance will be taking the club on a new set of routes. Good luck.
