Did he fancy a weekend break in Berlin? Or A visit to the wall. Well take My Breath Away if it wasn’t young Ian taking his London Marathon Training to a new level. Some 13,000 runners ran the Berlin half Marathon. After a day off sightseeing Ian took to the…

Well, it was the weekend of the RNW Bypass 10k. But still 24 of our members ran at 8 events. Wilmslow and Bramhall were busy in terms of the number of our runners. Even if they were a little stretched out. Or was the RD too loud? Taking a look…
