The spring marathon season is well and truly underway. Seven Barrowers ran Manchester Marathon on Sunday. With good weather conditions on the day, they all seized the opportunity to put in excellent performances, leading to a string of PBs! Particularly impressive was Vicky's 4th place in her age category!
On the other side of the Atlantic, Monday was a hot Patriots' Day. But that didn't stop Jon and Nigel from completing the legendary Boston Marathon!
Closer to home, 6 Barrow Runners participated in Leicester's Big 10k this weekend and 16 runners made up the team in the second LRRL race, the Stilton 7. Not just the running was impressive at the Stilton 7, but also the coordination to make sure that those with a name starting with an A finished in front...
