New Life Training Running club entered in to the Portsmouth Victory 10k race this weekend with fantastic results. The Warsash Running Club has been around for nealry 2 years now and this is the 2nd year it has entered this race. It was good to see so many new people at the race this year. The course is flat and ideal for new runners to experience a 10k event having built up to that distance with New Life Training.
Paul, Nancy and Jules were all first timers to this sort of event. Paul had never even run a 10k distance before but did exceptionally well finishing 10th in his category and completing a PB of 8m 56s per mile. Nancy has increased her running in recent months but excelled herself as she finished 15th in her category with a time just 20 seconds over the hour, awesome!! Jules had never entered a race like this before and set herself a target of 1h15m but she smashed it finishing very strong in just 1h 03m, fantastic.
Liam and Nick had both completed 10ks before with New Life Training, but both took the opportunity of the fast course to put in fantastic times. Nick finished just 5th in his category (Amazing!) with Liam coming in well under the hour mark!
Well done to all the runners! Hopefully a few more people from New Life Training for the next 10k!
