A great showing of the 🔴⚫️🟡 at this morning for our monthly parkrun tourism.

21 of them made the journey east for their Saturday 5km fix around the grounds of the site.

Well done to everyone who made the trip and to the other 42 DRR who attended this morning up and down the country.

The last weekend of May gave 4 of our members a trip to the Lake District to take on the Ullswater Way Trail 20.

It looked a grand day out around the second largest lake in the National Park.

Standout performance from the 4 of them was Andy finishing 🥉 V50 and taking 65minutes off his time from last year.

Last weekend was a big one, from 10k to Ultra Marathons our members were giving it their all.

Kicking things off in the Lake District was Emma who took on on Saturday morning adding her name to our list of Ultra Runners.

Dave was slightly closer to home in Ripon for the Ripon 10k whilst much closer to home were Dom, Toni, Mariam and Abu who were out in Leeds for the Rob Burrow’s Leeds Marathon and Half Marathon. Out in Leeds we also had Dawn and her Marathon Motivators keeping the runners pushing for that finish line.

Fantastic achievements all round 👏🏼

Today saw the highly anticipated return of the YVAA Grand Prix.

Our friends hosted the first race with their usual hilly route that is both brutal and beautiful in equal measure.

17 of our members made the trip to Holmfirth amongst them were Mikey & Treena making their Vets debut and what a debut it was for them both as they both walked away with prizes.

A strong start to the season from the club places us 3rd Mixed Team, fingers crossed we can keep hold of that throughout the year 🤞🏼

Stand out performances from morning were:

Treena 🥇 F60
Heather 🥉 F70
Mikey 🥉 M35

Roll on race 2 in just over 2 weeks time

14 of the 🔴⚫️🟡 army made the journey across the Pennines to Watergrove for parkrun this morning 🌅

8 of the 14 we’re making their first appearance at Watergrove but will they return for more in the future?! It’s a scenic course but one of the hilliest around.

First was Mikey collecting the no.3 token & our first female across the line was Amy taking 4th female and 30th overall.

Great running by everyone, on to the YVAA race tomorrow.

We’re deep in Spring Marathon season.

Leeds is just around the corner but it’s time to look back at a special moment that happened across the Atlantic. When Joanne crossed the finishline of she collected not one but two medals as this was no.6 making her a 6⭐️ finisher.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Congratulations Joanne 👏🏼

As we look ahead to the bank holiday weekend it’s a great time to celebrate our ultra runners from last weekend.

Jon and Mark headed to the local .events Calderdale Way Ultra.

Mark made his Ultra Marathon debut at this event and we’re sure this won’t be his last especially following in Jon’s footsteps.

Well done both, hope you’ve been enjoying the weather this week for your recovery.

Medal Monday Edition

Amongst the 59,000 runners taking on the 26.2 mile course from Blackheath to The Mall were these incredible members.

Congratulations to each and every one of them with their own story and own why!! It’s no easy task training through the dark cold winter months for the spring marathon but it’s worthwhile when you cross that finish line and earn that medal.

📣 Special shout out to who was down there to represent DRR on the big stage after winner the chance in our annual London draw.

🔔 Equally big shout out to for running another very impressive time of 2:33:24 and with it lowering his own club record for the marathon distance.

Well done all, enjoy the rest days ahead 👏🏼
