Round #2 of the Notts Mini-League XC headed down to Newark in for our Junior Harriers as we were well represented in nearly every race category with a full team in each proved to be a great morning for the green and black!
A short and fast 1.5k to start In the u10 girls Gigi walker borught home another amazing win followed by Lily Hands (4th) and Penny North (7th) for a great morning for our youngest!
2k each for the U12 Libby Mould (16th) Beth Brooks (17th) and Charlotte Wyld but a great show in for the girls whilst in the boys Max Foster (7th) Freddie North (13th) and Jack wyld (15th) all had great runs
2k and 3k races next for U14 girls Lauren Townrow and Bethany Hands finished 9th and 10th whilst the boys had a great score of 4, 7 and 10 for George North, Oakley Allsop and Harry Robertson
Top of the age grup and 3k for the U16 girls Holly Bulmer 5th Heidi Marks 8th Sabrina cupit-Richards 9th for another great team performance and 4k for the U16 boys Ethan Baxter (8th) Isaac Beresford (9th) and Henry Marks (11th) rounded out what was superb morning for the team with strong scores in every race!
Back on the road and Autumn Marathon season continued with three fine performances at York Marathon. One of the UK’s top marathons, it offers great support but its own challenges with its undulating course around the villages surround York. Never-the-less we saw a pair of fantastic runs as both Jake Rice and Julie Holloway but a super summer of training to good use with some brilliant PB’s as Jake finished in 3:03:23 whilst Julie finished in 3:40:56.
With the typical surfaces covered we finish something a little different as Jo Campbell made good use of her holiday to take part in the Miami International Airport 5k. With a pair of out-and-backs the run was not just different for its unusual location but a truly unique atmosphere as the other runways of the airport continued to operate for planes land taking off throughout the race, before finishing off with a string of freebies and a huge medal!
