Senior women record best ever finish in National Road Relays!!!

A fantastic run by our senior women saw them finish 11th at the National Road Relays in Sutton Park yesterday – the best result ever achieved by the club.  Katie Ingle ran a really strong leg (the 13th fastest of the day) to put us into 5th place on leg 1. Laura Whittle then took us up to 2nd place behind only Aldershot Farnham & District. Laura’s leg was the 8th fastest of the day – a great run given she has just returned to training following a rest after the Commonwealth Games. Larna Partridge and Kate McBrien then ran superbly to keep us at the front of the field. Well done Katie, Laura, Larna and Kate!!!

There was a battling performance by the senior men’s team (Nick Corker, Rob Andrew, Steve Marklew, Jon Higgins, Jim Barlow and Dean England) who finished 72nd.
