A friendly running club, based in Wells-next-the-Sea, Norfolk.
Awesome!
I think that word should describe perfectly the fantastic running by Lucy Mc and Glyn yesterday on the 48mile (!) Peddars Way Trail Ultra Marathon.
Both runners looked great at the various checkpoints and finished with a smile (just beating the wind and rain).
Well done to you both, we’re in awe of you!

Well! It’s flown by but RntS, as an affiliated club, is officially a year old!
That means that if you’re a member, your membership expires at the end of this month, and if you’re not a member and you want to join, now is the time!
The form for membership application (whether you’re a new member or renewing) can be found here: Members & Downloads
You’ll also find a copy of our club constitution there too.
If you have any questions, please ask a member of the committee who will be pleased to help.
Wells done to Hayley M who came away with a new 10k PB from the Snetterton Race Track 10k today.
Brilliant Running Hayley.

Well done to the hardy RntS who turned out at Reepham this morning to take part in their Cross Country run (approx 8.5k over two laps).
With the early morning frost (and the temperature hovering around 1 deg C) the scenery was magical, but then again, if you’re actually running it, going through the mud pit, crossing the streams and climbing the hay bale wall, I guess you probably didn’t notice!
Well done all. That change of clothes was certainly needed at the end!

Kudos to Ceri who completed the first lap but retired at that point. Also a mention to Milo Powles who decided not to contest his crown for the muddiest male and stayed clean!
The first official event of the year with RntS members taking part (that I’m aware of).
Well done to the 6 RntS who took part, and, in the process got the second part of the 3 medals which all join together. One more to go!

Last race of the year!
From an initial RntS starting group of almost 10 runners, due to sickness and injury, the field was reduced to a lonely two on the day!
We did have some family and RntS member support though (thanks for the sausage rolls Shirley, and the cheering Lucy H adn Cam’s family)
Another nice event by Marham Flyers with possibly the best 10k goodie bag ever (2 bars of chocolate, energy bar, pin badge, medal, a few paper games, air freshener, bottle of beer (and also coke, water and fruit juice if wanted) and a packet of crisps!
Also, they made around £3000 for the RAF Benevolent Fund from the event. A very worthwhile cause. The next 10k and duathlon will be on the 9th June.

Lovely turnout on Christmas Day with 28 runners going for a lovely social 5k run. You’d think we’d all have something better to do!
Thanks to Alison B and family for the Sloe Gin at the end.
Also, The Queens Head Foulsham Hair of the Dog Fun Run took part on boxing day. Home made sausage rolls and mince pies to celebrate at the end! Nice!
Well done to the RntS who took part in Race 1 of this winter’s Thetford Trails series.
Looks like the weather was nice. We look forward to seeing the pictures.

Much better weather this year for the RntS who donned their fancy dress outfits for the Buxton Fun Run.
Every penny raised goes to Autism Anglia.
A winner in the fancy dress (well done Lucy Mc, fantasticwork and a PB in a box! Excellent running), lots of great home cooked cakes to refuel and a raffle to win a few bottles on (I’m sure we had some winners!).
Well done everyone. Next year, maybe we can all dress up as a group?
Congratulation to Glyn for completing the Tween Valley Ultra today.
65km of hilly terrain (1574mtrs of elevation gain!).
Well done Glyn. A fantastic time considering the terrain. We look forward to hearing about it.
