A small but sweaty Wilmslow contingent pounded out 5 very hot miles around the outskirts of Wythenshawe Park. It is a dull course including stretches along the main road but the flat course had certainly attracted some fast athletes. We all enjoyed the finish round the athletics track lined by a sizeable bank holiday crowd (well OK mainly runners and parents from the junior 3K).
Rob couldn’t quite catch Dave Gee this time but managed to fight off a late challenge from Alan Pover who sends his regards to Stuart. Katie finished strongly in under 32 minutes just about 200m behind a sprinting Mike Cooper. PB’s all round, I think.
