With marathon season fast approaching, this weekend saw a number of Stragglers testing their pacing over the half marathon distance. Fifteen club members completed the Hampton Court Half. Simon Mumme was our first man over the line when he finished in 1:21:58 while Liz Fraser was our fastest woman with a time of 1:28:59. Roberto Ferreira, pictured below, gets a special mention for his PB of 1:35:27 and because he shared a photo!
Elsewhere, Jim Desmond completed the Fleet Halt Marathon in a time of 1:30:49 while
Phyllis Flynn ran the Palama Half in Mallorca in 1:37:29. Chance Rowan went a bit further completing Clapham Chasers' Riverside 20 miler in 2:29:06 while Ian Hawkes and Simon Brazil both covered the same distance at the Wymondham AC race, finishing in 2:34:16 and 2:47:16 respectively.
On Friday the club was also represented at the Serpentine last Friday of the month 5k.
