The main Sunday race was the Sidcup 10 which is known for a slightly boring, but flat and fairly fast route. 8 PWRs chose to take this on and some even included it in their marathon training. Simon Bryant took the new club record for M Senior 10 mile, breaking Brian O’Connor’s previous time of 01:00:39. Well done Simon!

Brian meanwhile took on the Cambridge half marathon, this is a 2 lap super flat course through the city of Cambridge and finished well although he states he ‘has a lot of work to do before London!’
