On the other hand, it does mean that the running activities tend to ramp up and we've news of some events involving Waddies.
First of all, we had some success at the Rye Summer Classic Series event on Friday evening, with Albert picking up a prize for 1st Male Vet 5; Lynn was 1st in the Lady Vet 3 and Janet 5th in Lady Vet 4. Mike Pain also had a strong run completing the 5K course in 19.01 and finishing 20th overall and 3rd in the Male Vet 1 category. The race was exceptionally fast with the winner, David Wardle from London Irish AC, lowering the course record by almost three minutes. His finishing time of 14.58 ranks as one of the fastest 5K road races seen in the country this year.
Wadhurst results from Rye:
Mike Pain 19.01
Lynn Hayes 21.24
Albert Kemp 22.53
Janet Drake 30.18
On Sunday, a number of Waddies took part in the Newick Will Page 10K and we are still trying to locate these results - you can read them here just as soon as they are available. In the meantime, here's a couple of snaps, courtesy of Shane.
Coming up this week is the Hastings AC 1 mile relay race for teams of 4 and whilst the Waddies will be represented in both the Men's and Ladies events, if you can make the event, please turn up and help make at least one team.
The next Grand Prix race is the Hellingly 10K on September 9th.
