Friday/Saturday 11/12 July 2025
What a start to the weekend! Sean Richards set a new personal best marathon time in what he described as an ‘accidental marathon’, a multi terrain event called No Man’s Land, between Cyclopark, Gravesend and the Cuxton area. Steve Wakeford and John Richards were also there, possibly running in the opposite direction as that was part of the challenge! Well done, all.
Nigel Lambourn recovered from his half Outlaw triathlon triumph last weekend to enjoy a 10k run, showing off his new Outlaw cap. It’s almost worth doing it! Nice work, Super Nige.
Abbie Kirkham put Walmer and Deal Seafront (WADS) parkrun into the middle of a 20 mile run today, looking strong throughout. She was joined at WADS by 48 other Deal Tri members, at varying places in their running journeys – from experienced speedy runners to returning, rehab runners, and our current Couch to 5k group. They all count. Martin Boucher and Dave Hoile made it over to Pegwell Bay parkrun, and Kev Gardner made the Preston Park one, the only 3 non-WADS parkrunners in Kent today.
Further afield, Andy Russell and Sally Russell visited Trelissick in Cornwall, a beautiful leafy run overlooking the river with a monster hill thrown in – described as ‘undulating’ in the blurb ???? Back at WADS, we celebrated Pride week. Lots of bright colours and a great atmosphere ????️???? Check out the Instagram reel below, and incoming details of our social run in the morning, report and pics tomorrow night ????????♂️????????☕️????????
