The count down to the Great South Run continues with a compulsory 5.9mile route this evening. Although several people managed to find slight detours along the way the route was a real test for most. Two new runners join the group this evening with Mike Y coming along for his first run and setting a course record in his first attempt. His average of 7m20s per mile for the near 6 mile route is one of the quickest ever in Running Club history! Great first run Mike!! Miles also enjoyed his first run with the team and clocked a very fast 8m37s per mile. Elsewhere Greg continues to improve with an average of just over 10 minute miles making this the furthest and fastest he’s run to date! He is now looking good for a sub 1h45m Great South!!! Bruce and Ali managed to find a slightly shorter route having missed a turning, but there speed was very impressive averaging just 9m 30s ish. Pete had a great run too with his fastest average since July. Finally Kate was back from holiday and did exceptionally well to complete the 6mile route after a break from running. She also completed it in a very quick time of 10m 21s per mile.
Same routes next week team!! Well done, preparation is going very well!!
