Royal Sutton takes on the London Marathon

Royal Sutton London Marathon TeamOn Sunday fifteen Royal Sutton athletes will be competing in the London Marathon. This is the largest ever contingent of runners from the club to run in the event.

Of the 15 runners, three qualified to race in the UKA Marathon Championship which is incorporated within the event while a further 9 athletes pre-qualified for the event by running “Good for age” qualifying times. Ollie Haradence, who has been in great form recently, will be looking to run close to 2 hours 30 mins while many of the men are looking to run between 2.40 and 3 hours. Andrea Deathridge and Kate McBrien will hope to be our first women back in around 3.15-3.20.
Look out for the blue vests on the red button!

National Road Relays – 13 April

http://www.englishroadrunningassociation.co.uk/Royal Sutton’s senior men and women put in some great performances at the National Road Relays on Saturday. The highlight was provided by Laura Whittle who ran away from the field on the 1st leg to record the second fastest time of the day.

The women’s team ultimately finished in 36th place.  This was a great result given the team included three junor athletes (Miranda Stoddart, Megan McBrien, Rebecca Robinson) and two athletes making their debuts at this event (Vici Richardson and Nikki Singh).

The men’s team was missing a number of key runners and finished in 62nd position. Ollie Haradence showed he is in good form ahead of the marathon by recording a course PB of 28.56, whilst Chris Taylor ran the fastest short leg for the men in a time of 17.00.

The full results are available here: Men’s Women’s Photos should be available on Bryan Dale’s excellent website here in the next few days.
