April 2020

First of all thanks so much to everyone for getting involved in the Marathon Challenge over the weekend. It was fantastic watching results come in, looking at the great times being posted on Strava and constant twitter updates. There were some fantastic individual runs with the fastest gentlemen of the day being Chris Greenwood 1:09:30 and the fastest lady being Georgina Wiley with a 1:24:35 (less than a minute off her PB). Also, Phil Sanders running sub 75 off not so much training over the last year was great to see.

 

As well as these it has been great to read on Strava how the event has brought back some focus for people whose motivation may have been down so kudos to everyone that took part. We have been glued to screens, much to the irritation of our families!

 

So to the results…

We did take into into account the elapsed time v moving time rule of 90 seconds some runs did have to be slightly adjusted. 

 

Which means in third place place a total time of 2.42.03 – Ben Cook, Dan Ansell and Andrea Barber.

 

Second place with 2.40.06 Geogina Wiley and David Mohring.

 

and the winners are,

 

George Russell and Craig Phillips with 2.38.53

 

Full results can be seen below.

 

Thanks again to everyone for taking part and potentially if the lock down continues we will have something else in the next few weeks.
