Panther Brewery Reepham 10k

The second of this week’s evening races for a few of us. Very well organised by the Reepham Runners this time.

Although warm and windy, there was a slight respite about 30 mins in when there was a light rain shower which helped to cool things down.

Another great turn out by the RntS with a number of us winning spot prizes at the end.

Bonus in the fact the the medal doubles up as a bottle opener!

Definitely one for next year’s calendar.

Scottow Sundowner 5k

A lovely evening had by all at the Scottow Sundowner 5k last night. Another very well organised and marshaled run by the Coltishall Jaguars running club.

A new sign in procedure made registration very quick so there were no hold ups and the usual cakes and drinks were on hand for pre and post run fueling.

The weather was warm but luckily cloud cover helped keep it cool during the event, if only they could sort out the head wind down the back of the airfield, it would be perfect!!!

It was great to have a couple of our C25K graduates taking part in their first official race. I think they enjoyed it!

As normal with a race organised by the Jags, the medal was superb and apparently glows in the dark!

Thetford Trails Summer Series – Race 3

Race 3 of the Thetford trails summer series: It was a tiny bit drizzly and a tad muddy. I managed to somehow run 49:52 being a course and an overall PB! Mum was saving her legs for run Norwich, but we all know know that’s her excuse. She finished in a still very good time of 57.32. I was once again 2nd junior, first junior girl and first in my age category.

Couch to 5K Class of 2019

Isn’t it wonderful what eight weeks of effort can achieve.

Just over eight weeks ago we welcomed a group of beginners into the supportive arms of Runners-next-the-Sea as they started on the annual Couch to 5Km course. 

Nervous tension was in the air as our beginners, not knowing what to expect and fearing the challenges ahead of them began their journey.  The support from the RntS membership, as always, quickly dispelled any apprehension and provided a firm foundation from which the beginners began to build.

Week by week our C25K beginners grew in ability and confidence, week by week the homework was completed through sunshine, rain and wind and week by week I was proud of our beginners and proud of the wonderful support that was given by RntS.

So today, Saturday 13th July, RntS held the second C25K ParkRun graduation. Nine of our beginners achieved this significant milestone and are welcomed open armed into the RntS Membership Family.
