Swaffham Spring 10K

60:26 for Nichola

On Sunday 19th May, Nichola Webster from Grantham Running Club travelled southeast to Swaffham for the Hayes & Storr Sublime Swaffham Spring 10K.

With its HQ just beside The Green Britain Centre, the well organised race was held on a closed out and back road course in the heart of the beautiful Norfolk countryside. With a noticeable climb at the turnaround point, the second half was tougher than the first, with warm conditions making the going even harder.

On the comeback following injury, Nichola finished just outside the hour in 01:00:26, the day made even more pleasurable when combined with a trip to the seaside. 

The race winner was the recent Sleaford Half Marathon victor Wayne Lathwell of Lincoln AC, who clocked a lifetime best 34:02. The winning female was Sally Hurst of Renegade Runners in 41:50. There were 281 finishers.
