lots of news!!!

Sunday 17th May

Pink panthers were spotted far and wide racing literally all over the North West, starring;-

Windermere Marathon
Diane Powell & Fiona Johnson
The weather conditions were perfect for marathon running, although maybe a little windy, and Diane & Fiona cruised around the course which is incredibly hilly, with a particular nasty hill at 21miles and they both finished in style.
(approx finishing times Diane - 4Hr 50ish min & Fiona 4Hr 30min

Well done to both of you, I cycled round and that was hard enough!

Chester Half Marathon

Paula Gaterell was going for a pb in this her 2nd half msarathon and whilst having a difficult time with stomach cramps she still knocked off more than 2 min off her previous half marathon time so well done Paula - time 1hr 39m59s

Bron Vincent - entered this race as her first half marathon and did a brillient time of just over 2hrs, I,m sure Bron would be the first to admit that 6 months ago she would never believe she could even run this far. Well done Bron you are an inspiration to all of our beginner runners, and you've proved what training and determination can do - keep going.

Claire Carr - now getting experienced at this distance also had a fabulous run knocking 5 min off her pb to achieve 1hr 50m

Keely Tabenber - I think this was Keeely's 1st attempt at a half and she put in a brilliant performance to finish in just under 2 hrs.

Well done to all of you.
