Striders at the half Marathon

Newark Striders

Well done to Lynne Boby and Kath Scott who completed the Sleaford Striders SUMMER 10K in a time of 1:05:02 on Friday night , a  lovely route and lots of wonderful cakes.

After a week of awful weather the sun decided to shine on Newark yesterday especially for the half marathon runners!

What an amazing day, it was absolutely wonderful to see the four clubs come together and produce such a great event.

Although the sunshine was lovely it makes tough conditions for the runners, so well done to everyone that participated. 

Team Striders were on good form , 

Tom Marshall took the honours for first Strider home in a time of 1:22:11 which I believe is PB and came in 27th overall.
