Previous events:
28th February 2010, multi terrain 5k run at Irchester Country Park - Entrants Hannah Donaghue, Lee Chiswell and Sharon Woodward.
Well the 1st event of the season is complete and what a day! Wind, rain, lots of puddles and lots and lots of mud, making the going pretty tough. Although there is also no doubt that it is very liberating to splash through puddles and get caked in mud! Not sure Lee would agree who fell over in the mud and temporarily lost his sense of humour!
Times Lee 29.13 51/104, Hannah 27.12 40/104, Sharon 26.10 33/104 so all pretty respectable!
Now for the pic!
7th to 10th May, Tuscan Trek, the equivalent of UK 3 Peaks - Entrants Di and Sharon Woodward, Tom Beckwith, Hannah Donaghue and Emma Smith.
