Whether it is the Weather ??
Whether it is the weather ?? Does the weather play a part in people having a good run time?? Well, last Saturday it was "cold", 5.1 degrees (by most people's definition). Sixty-five Runners.
We had one male age course record, 12 PBs, and 27 Best times this Year. Not a scientific analysis, but most concluded that it was a good day for running( once you got over the shock of getting out of bed).
"The Dominator" Dominic Osborne, a PB of 2m47s, 38m 29s(sub 40mins) a new course record for 13-15 y.o Male. Impressive because it follows continuous improvements in his run times , not by seconds but by significant margins (by minutes). Wow.

Our Handicap Winners demonstrate that everyone has a chance of winning if you improve your times.
1st Daniel Illingworth best time since Aug 2025, 2nd Christian Marevich a massive 3m 36s improvement over last month and Belinda Hanover, 3rd, a best time since August 2025. Well done.

Credit must be given to those who mustered a smile when being photographed going up a difficult hill, "Out the Back".

WINNERS
1. Daniel ILLINGWORTH 55:18 - best time since Aug'25
2. Christian MAREVICH 1:19:071. 2nd - pb by 3m 36s (May'26)
