Despite being run since 1982, this race is in its debut year in the Hampshire Road Race League. Hosted by Fleet and Crookham AC, this traffic free course is very gently undulating but still considered fast and good for running a PB.
Starting from Calthorpe Park, team IWRR did a lap of the park before heading North East past the railway station.
The halfway point comes on the amusingly named Rotting Green Road, as they headed South West toward the sharp turn at the Barley Mow Pub before they made their way back to the finish at Calthorpe Park.
Paul Cameron was the first roadrunner over the finishline, in a respectable sub 80 minute time, giving him 11th V45. Ross Wilkes and David Blake were next home both collecting themselves shiny PBs as a reward. Matt Fletcher was next to finish, showing a long awaited return to form after his surgery completing the 1st men’s team. For the girls, it was ladies captain Jodie Wilmott that made it to the finish line first.
“I felt relaxed throughout, so onwards and upwards for the summer”
Personal Bests were also achieved by George Butler, Cally Wareham and Dave Wilcock, making for a very successful and enjoyable day for team IWRR.
