Sunday saw an amazing Club turnout of nearly 40 runners take on the North Dorset Villages Marathon in support of Georgina Brice who was making a bid to be the second RFRC runner to join the 100 Marathon Club. Of course, Georgie stormed it and collected her coveted top and medal at a celebration in true RFRC style.
First time marathoners Rachel Nicholls & Darren Purchase enjoyed great runs and there were PBs from Mark Wilson, Ron Foord, Hannah Kirkman, Ann-Marie Crampton, Matthew Paul, Ian Bawler, Emma Perkins, Simon Denson & Emily Vining; plus several members clocked times which qualified them for Good For Age places for the London Marathon … looks like that could be another RFRC takeover Running 65 miles in Devon was Andy Burgess, who completed the East Devon Round in 16.31.
Andy Higham stormed home in 7.25 at the Pembrokeshire Endurancelife Coastal Ultra (name is nearly as long as the 35 mile race)
At the Uplowman 10K Simon Rowland was timed home in 49.05 and Sherri Dingle in 61.51.
Our parkrunners who ventured further afield went to Sandy Water, Blanford, Canterbury and Highbury Fields where all 4 of the Timpson clan ran the 5K.
