Final Results of Evening Street Score League

 Wed 10th of April saw the last of the evening street score events. Based in Danescourt and using much of llandaf and fairwater it attracted a select and hardy group of runners braving the rain and cold. Winner on the night on the ground and on handicap was Clem with Caitlin Pearson 2nd and Clare Dallimore 3rd. Alice who came 2nd on handicap had already won the series but the minor positions were still up for grabs. Clem's win gave him second place and  Hayden who was unable to run due to injury was 3rd.

 43 different runners competed in the 8 race series. No-one managed to do them all and only 12 people competed in 4 or more. Entries fell off a bit as the series progressed, possibly due to poor weather this spring but we will have to look at how we advertise the events before next year.

Wentwood local event

Despite the weather there was a fantastic entry at the Wentwood event. A big thank you to Neil and Claire for organising.

Unfortunately I forgot the camera, it was very pretty in the snow! Fortunately there was some shelter from the easterly wind so it wasn’t too cold once you got running.

As I had originally intended to run the cancelled Forest of Dean half marathon I opted for the blue course. On the whole running conditions underfoot were good although the brashings slowed me up in some places. Luckily everything went smoothly and the controls were all collected in and we were packed up and away by 2.45pm.


Compassport Trophy 1st Round

Well done all who trekked  up to the Wrekin on Sunday. They were met with generally challenging courses on difficult terrain. At least the weather was nice although there were still small patches of snow on top. Clare Dallimore was our only class winner in Women's Blue and our rather depleted team came 5th of 6.
