GRC Club 5k Race

After the race

 An impressive 58 runners took part in GRC’s club 5k race at Harrowby Hall Lane. On a warm July evening with the starting temperature something like 25°C, runners were set for a challenging evening. This event was given the added bonus of being listed as Round 2 of GRC’s Grand Prix series for 2021 having been unofficially measured with a measuring wheel, which has allowed runners to claim PBs over the course.

The race was won by the ever-improving Sam Jepson-Rivers with a time of 18:30, who broke into the county


level range with his age grade score of 70.07%. First lady was new member Rachel Hamilton with 22:10 scoring her 67.21%.

The standout performers were the vast number of beginners who pinned a race number on for the very first time. Prepared to give it a go, the new members got a real flavour of what a race like scenario would be like and will be more confident competitors going forward!

The evening's other impressive performers were Joe Diggins, Robert Howbrook, Robert McArdle, Catherine Payne and Sarah High who all scored in excess of 70% on the age graded scores and scoring good points for the GP Series. 

The event could not have gone ahead without the continued support from the club, with many stepping forward to volunteer in a vast array of capacities. Special thanks go to Robert McArdle, Andrew Pask, Ady Walker, Matthew Williamson, Nim Jepson-Rivers, Frazer Marshall, Stuart Pick and CJ Walker Lees.
