Wednesday evening saw the club supporting another Charity, Children With Cancer in the form of a 5km fun run.

Friday saw the return of the much anticipated Mermaid 10km, a race which hasn’t been back on the race calendar for a few years. This race is flat which makes it a really good race to clock a solid time or potentially even a personal best and some of our athletes didn’t disappoint. With three of our athletes finishing in the top 10 with strong performances from the boys the team also accumulated the lowest scoring on the day.

James just holds off John in a battle for 5th place. This result make John number 1 in the UK for a V50!
Debutants Chris and Dean finish 9th and 17th
Everybody Hurts! Shaun, Paul, Jeff and Steve all grafting to the finish
Jade, Paul D (who PB’d on the day), Pauline and Ian
Phillip, Nicky, Sharon, Brian and Michael
Trevor, Stephen, Catherine and Ronnie
James, Gillian, Brian and Janet

Unfortunately we had a faller on the day as Shirley Gibson took a tumble resulting in a fractured elbow. Speedy recovery Shirley. Well done everyone, great to see so many Harriers competing together again.

Get well soon Shirley

Saturday Saw Ted Kerby as our only competitor at the Newport to Ryde Multi Terrain 7 mile race, a race which occurs on Easter Saturday each year and has a course which is undulating throughout. Running with his brother on the day, ted finished the course in around 59 minutes. Results will be released here when available.
