Newark Striders Running Club
Well done to the sixteen mad Striders who took on the Belvoir challenge, two routes of 15 or 26 miles which comprised of lots of mud , hills, stiles, electric fencing all completed with Striders usual smiles and a bit of swearing!
Matt Silk, Lisa Burn and Anthea Moisey completed the 15 mile course, Matt finished in a fast time of 2:24:02, Lisa in 3:18:08 and Anthea in a brilliant time of 4:21:11.
Meanwhile on the marathon route Lee Robinson was first to finish for Striders in a wonderful time of 4:56:14 despite adding a couple of extra miles to make it an ultra marathon. The next speedy pair to finish was Nick Beveridge 5:48:48 and Andy Scott 5:48:58.
Leading the ladies was the super duo of
Jacqui Jackson in 7:42:14 and Stacey Atkins 7:42:15, with Karen Illsley and Debbie Chettle who smiled all the way round in times of 8:24:50 and 8:24:54. And finally "team stile " comprising of Beth Toone, Jennifer Owens , Lynne Boby and Kath Scott finished in 8:59:05.
A special mention to Lisa Ward a member of Striders RWO and Jayne Young who completed the 15 mile route in 6:47:27.
Congratulations to Nicole Henderson who completed the Clough Taylor people's 10K run, a windy affair around Holme Pierrepont.
