The 'Run'down - 3rd February 2020

A quiet racing weekend saw club performances up and down at the country at a host of parkruns – even making it to Barrow-in-Furness! There were successes for Will Clarke and Millie Crane at Rushcliffe, and James Lawton made the journey to Edinburgh for the Uni cross country championships.
