Perfect running conditions this evening. A warm evening with a light refreshing drizzle!! It was a little wet underfoot too but not quite swimming levels yet! Even with the damp weather it was a good turn out this evening and the conditions certainly aided the runners as we achieved 4 personal bests!!!
Sandy, who had a great first run back last week set off in pursuit of Mike this evening and looked to keep close to him up the first part of Brook lane! He literally sprinted round the 2.9mile route on his way back to running fitness. He finished with an average of 8m 04s per mile and made it back for the Tabata class at Enjoy Fitness Studio as well! This was Sandys fastest average since records began on 28/3/11!!!! Well done Sandy!!
Also with a PB this evening was Lindsey. She has had some problems with her pace-maker in recent weeks but it was clearly turned up fast this week as she hit a new personal record for the second consecutive week with a 9m 38s per mile average!! Well done Lindsey. She was aided and abetted by the motivation Sharon, who also helped Theresa round the course. It was Theresa’s first Monday outing with us, although she has attended the Friday group on occasions. Her 9m 57s per mile was a PB for a Monday!
Last week we welcomed Fran to the club, She was magnificent last week and clearly enjoyed it as she went for a run during the weekend and came back for more this evening. She massively improved on last week as well. Taking a huge 1m 13s off her previous time to bring her average down to 9m 36s per mile. Awesome! Next week though she needs to try the longer distance!!.
Greg also improved on last week taking another 33 seconds off his time. His average of 9m 28s was his fastest since May and that was on a much shorter circuit! Well done Greg! It was only Greg and Mike who braved the longer route this evening. Mike had another fast run finishing in 7m 16s average, still along way ahead of the pack!! Last time on this route next week though team and hopefully some more Personal bests!! Well done all!
