Salisbury Plain Marathon
Most people try to stay shaded on the hottest days of the year, other people run marathons in the blistering heat across a plain, where there’s absolutely no shade. RSE’s David Witnall is the latter, running the Salisbury Plain marathon, a trail run across the largest military training area in the UK. The route is a 1-lap circuit starting and finishing at the Old Fowler Barracks, following footpaths and byways.
Well done to Dave, who finished the course in 5:05:09!
Cirencester Summer Sizzler
The clue is in the title for this hot and humid race, held in Cirencester Bathurst Estate. Hosted by fellow Cirencester AC, the course starts by the Old Kennels, before heading out on a 2-lap course featuring a tough stint up Ewe Pens. As part of the Glos. AAA road championship and RSE’s very own championship, the race was a sellout and over 40 RSE club members took on the challenge – that’s nearly 10% of all the runners that took part!
