Two Halfs and a Mile..

Stevenage Half Marathon
This past weekend was the Stevenage Half Marathon, which took place on Sunday.  A few squirrels were present for the race with some excellent results and universal praise for the organisers Fairland Valley Spartans.  Sue Foot came first in her age category in 2:16:07, David Brewer came home in a time of 1:35:57 and Mark Larwood clocked a 1:38:23.  Sue said of the race, “A really good event along the ups and downs of the Stevenage cycle paths!”.
Toronto Waterfront Half Marathon
Elsewhere Laurie Scott took on a tough run at the Toronto waterfront half marathon. Clocking 1.57.58 on a windy humid day. Laurie commented “Although not the time I hoped for and I kinda crashed after 10k I managed to hang on ! Lovely well supported race and finished in top 40% for age, gender and overall so not too disappointed”.
One Mile at a time!
A pair of Whitmores (Kris & Sam) took on the Welwyn Garden City invitation 1 mile time trial at the Gosling track on Thursday night.  It was a competitive night under the lights, with Kris and Sam the only squirrels among mostly Garden City Runners and everyone managed under nine minutes. Both ran in the second race Kris coming 10th in 5:33 and Sam 11th 5:43. Looks like the family rivalry is heating up, with Sam ready to usurp Kris and gain the familial bragging rights!

Parkrun Action
Richard and Georgia Barker headed to Stanborough parkrun in Welwyn Garden City to celebrate Georgia’s 150th parkrun. Amanda Greig and Andrew Coates were also there, they all shared the obligatory coffee and cake afterwards in Old Welwyn! Georgia said “despite being only Stanborough’s 3rd event but it was well organised with a waterproof mat area to store bags, jackets, etc and friendly support. It’s a 3 lap off road course with a hill at the start that you encounter 3 times and may get muddy in wetter months unless they have a winter course planned but I would definitely revisit.” Ripe for more squirrels to pay a trip to support the new event.
