Five Romsey runners took part in the Clarendon Half Marathon on Sunday 8th October, an annual event now organised by the Rotary Clubs of Winchester and Salisbury. The day includes a cross-country marathon from Salisbury to Winchester along the Clarendon Way, with the half marathon joining from Broughton to Winchester. The route was undulating with the ground underfoot quite wet from a lot of rain over the week leading up to the event. On the day, it was dry and the sun shone for most of it; excellent conditions for Amanda Hull to claim 1st female club position and 3rd senior female. Finishers: Amanda Hull 01:36:56, Candice Snelling 01:49:37, Fiona Crowther 01:53:57, Penny Jennings 01:59:28 and Charlotte Maslen 02:21:15.
Romsey runners, Wendy Couper, Gill Callus and Anna Duignan travelled to the picturesque Windsor Great Park, to take part in an 8k Park Run on Saturday 6th October, organised by Running4Women. The course took them along the Long Walk, past the Copper Horse and the Royal Lodge before emerging back at the top of the Long Walk. The finish included a 1.5k downhill towards Windsor Castle producing the following results: Anna Duignan 45:39, Gill Callus 50:26 and Wendy Couper 59:01.
