New Life Training were well represented in the 65th Victory 5 race in Portsmouth yesterday. With 13 runners, many wearing the new running club colours, in attendance it was always going to be a good day! For many this was their 1st experience of a competitive organised run, there were a few pre-run nerves understandable with the 700 participants registered for the event. The 5mile run itself was very enjoyable, a slight breeze along a flat route gave everyone a chance to put in a good time and no-one dissappointed! There were some exceptionally strong runs – in particular Sandy, Katrina and Annie ran very fast times, plus there were some awesome performances from Tre (under the hour), Angela (getting faster and faster!), Liam (stopped for a loo break and still did 10min miles!), Alan, Alistair, Sharon, Kelly, Wendy and Bruce (I better watch my back as you are getting closer to my times!)
