Laura Pibworth, Helen King, Monika Ciezarek and Pete Fahy completed this 10k Saturday morning race. Laura described it as: Starting in the picturesque Cotswold village of Tysoe, this race lulled us into a false sense of security with an easy first mile through the flat-ish village. The route then took us through a field and up a fairly steep climb to a windmill, from which you could see great views across the Warwickshire/Oxfordshire countryside as it was a clear day.

Jackie Stuart on her 10k race on Sunday: On Sunday 7th June I took part in a 10k race around Pitsford Reservoir near Northampton, finishing just over halfway through the field. It was a very warm morning but with a strong wind off one side of the water. The surface was a stony, trail path with views of the water for the majority of the run. Whilst not hilly, I wouldn’t call it flat either – let’s say undulating!

Mitch ran this race, which goes around the beautiful grounds of Elvaston Castle & Country Park. He described it as:

An interesting mix of trails, cobbles round the castle, road, clay canal paths and grass, but flat as the proverbial….

Jackie Stuart was 21st lady in this 10k multi-terrain race around Kingsbury Water Park. Jackie described it as:

On a beautiful evening the midges outnumbered the runners. The course consisted of 2 laps around the lakes on mainly grassy trails and was relatively flat apart from one stretch of 4 or 5 ‘humps’. This was a very enjoyable event, with a small field of runners.

Why not put next year’s date in your diary now – 10th May 2016

12 Sphinx runners braved the elements for the first of this year’s EMGP races at the Silverstone F1 Circuit in Northampton. Probably some of the worst conditions that this paricular race has been run in – driving rain, howling winds (particularly on those parts of the course not enclosed by the stands) and temperature on the cool side to say the least! Nevertheless some creditable performances, not least by Mary Bench and Dave West, who managed to aqua-plane themselves to a PB. Well done also to the 3 Sphinx debutants at this event: David West. Pacharo Chinamulungu and Karen Winchester. And a warm welcome to newbie Jamie Richards who was making his club debut in the famous blue and gold. Great performances by Kev Naughton, 3rd in his age category and Andrejs Blakunovs who finished in an outstanding 16th place overall in a field of 1,067 runners – phenomenal! Next race at Rugby http://mcs.open.ac.uk/mkac/emgprugby6.htm next Wednesday at 7.45 p.m.
