Milton Keynes Marathon

On 1st May Caroline and Paul Davis made the journey to Milton Keynes to take part in the marathon. The field of over 2000 runners took to the roads from the home of MK Dons football club in bright sunshine.

The gently undulating course took in both town and country park with plenty of twists and turns to keep the mind occupied and culminated in a lap of the pitch in the stadium finish.
First home was Paul in a time of 3:33:05 just 8 days after completing the London marathon. Caroline, taking part in her first marathon for GRC, was aiming for sub 4 hours which she achieved with a time of 3:56:52 earning her a place in the 2017 UKA age group rankings.

After the race both agreed that it had been a hard few hours of running but were more than happy with their times.
