Congratulations to Sarah Towers who took on the scenic and challenging News Castle course in Stornoway on the marvellous Isle of Lewis. When I ran the half marathon in my Nymac vest there (and won 2 black puddings), my photo appeared in the local paper as ‘The New York runner crosses the line’. So I hope Sarah enjoyed the scenery as much as I did. With the Thunder run underway, attention was focussed elsewhere for some members. Among the achievements, there was a First Place, Men, at Flatts Lane for Nick Smith.
Iain Hall was, inevitably, amongst the tourists, notching up his 164 different event at Kew Woods in Southport while, also beginning with a W, Andrew Bishop ran at Wepre in Flintshire. Here is the link to the full set of results:
