Bath Skyline 10k

Sarah Reynolds described the Bath Skyline as the muddiest, slippiest and hilliest 10k she’d ever done but fun none-the-less and achieved 1:04 in these tough conditions. Well done Sarah!

684 people took part in the Bramley 20 mile race in Reading. RSE’s Andy Masser took part in this one finishing in 2:42:12. Awesome effort Andy!

The Slaughter Valentines 10k

New member Steve Phelps ran this scenic run in and around the beautiful Cotswold hills and through the villages of Lower and Upper Slaughter.

Staverton 10

On a rather blustery Sunday morning, the first Championship race of 2018 saw 8 RSE runners compete in this 10 mile, 2 lap course which heads out of the airport and into Churchdown; returning to the airport via a brief section through farmland. First back for the club, with a fantastic result in his first 10 mile race, was Tom Cooper very closely followed by Russell Young. It was also a close fight for the ladies with Nadine Brown having to obtain a PB to hold off 2017 Club Champion Elaine Chapman to the finish line. Sarah Reynolds also raced for the first time in RSE club colours and put in a great performance. Well done everyone!

Tom Cooper 1:05:49 PB; Russell Young 1:06:01; Jack Pitcher 1:11:57; Andy Masser 1:15:37; Nadine Brown 1:20:01 PB (3rd SL); Elaine Chapman 1:20:39; Sharon Smith 1:24:55 (1st LV65) and Sarah Reynolds 1:27:56.
