The club’s new intake of runners from January ran their first race, the target of their training for the past five months. Many of them are now looking to their next target race.

Tone Zone’s Simon Gill came fifth overall in 34.28 while Kari Mack was the third lady in 40.38. A record number of PBs were recorded.
