Although dusk was just visible, and an almost full moon, Venus, Jupiter and Mars shone brightly in the night sky, the real stars were the 14 runners of the 29 finishers who achieved PBs and SBs in this month’s Club Handicap. 23 of you finished before the clock time of 35 mins.

The field included 3 First Timers (FRs) one of whom, Lee Aldrich, was first across the line.  Second, and first scorer, was a much improved Greg Whiteman, 22 secs ahead of Steve Ramek who was the same amount ahead of Matthew Pritchard, with both of them doing PBs. Zoe Wingfield was a further 14 secs behind, and first lady home, with an SB of 23:14.

Jack Holland’s PB time of 16:28 moves him up to 4th in the all time fastest list, just above Dave Wilson.  Zoe Ashcroft was fastest Lady with a time of 21:06.
