We have now come to the end of both our summer virtual series and our overall virtual series for 2021.
Before we get to the results. Many thanks to all who have participated and helped to keep the running and (virtual) racing going over the last year. We are now starting to see events come back on the calendar and we expect to be back to our usual Club Championship competition for 2022.
In the women’s competitions, quite a few 10-mile performances to count. Clair Howison ran 1:21:33 to sneak the fastest 10-miler by just 2 seconds from Charlotte Moran. Mandy Cazes was just a minute or 2 behind in 1:23:18, and then Gayle Hamilton in 1:25:25. Roisin Murray makes up the last of the 10- milers with her 1:30:34.
There are some very speedy milers out there with Gayle Hamilton running 6:35 for the fastest mile time and Charlotte Moran added to her previous 3k and 10-miler with her 7:21. Roisin Murray added to her 10-miler with a 14:31 3k.
