Sphinx Virtual Handicap Results - May (Race 1)

May 24, 2020

Well done and thank you to all who took part in the inaugural Sphinx Virtual Handicap. The event was a rousing success with 55 runners crossing the finishing line. Conditions were tough as competitors were forced to choose between running in heat or a hurricane, but in spite of that many of our athletes recorded impressive personal bests! A baffling number of runners managed to crossed the line at the exact same time giving the organiser a considerable headache with allocating position points!

Mura di Lucca parkrun 14/09

September 17, 2019

Thank you to Laura for this write up of her Parkrun tourism. This parkrun took place on walls of the historic city of Lucca in Tuscany, Italy. Because the wall is only 4km round, the first part of the parkrun course involved running up to a monument and back before running anti-clockwise on the wall. After the yoga warm up, the parkrun briefing was delivered firstly in Italian and then in English.
