Salisbury city centre saw the 22nd running of its half marathon last Sunday. The fast and pancake flat course tempted Tim & Bridget Keyte and Vicechair Sarah Sharp over to the Solent to run around the Wiltshire spires.
Starting on New Canal this 2 lap race boasts virtually zero elevation. The trio set off on their first lap down Bridge Street and out onto the more rural Lower Road toward Quidhampton. They swung in a southerly direction toward Neterhampton and then West Harnham. As they returned to the city centre on lap one they ran through the grounds of the beautiful cathedral.
2nd lap. Keep going. They revisited the loop of the surrounding area, before returning to the city centre before finishing on the sports field within the Cathedral grounds.
Tim ran a blinder, taking a minute and a half off his PB which has stood as his record since 2013. Sarah was next over the line in just over 2 hours and 5 minutes, with Bridget not too behind.
Tim Keyte – 1.38.20
Sarah Sharp – 2.04.57
Bridget Keyte – 2.18.06
