Thank you to Vickie Hand for the following write up Bank holiday weekend and 2 sphinx embarked on a journey to Taunton for the 2nd year of the ciderthon event. Deciding to camp on a cider farm it was certainly going to be a cider fuelled weekend. Getting started with 4 pints of scrumpy whilst setting up camp. Saturday morning there was an opportunity for parkrun tourism which couldn’t be overlooked, so off we went to Street parkrun.
results from the second Northbrook handicap [gallery ids=“10882”]
Following on from the results posted earlier, here is write up from Craig Robinson On a chilly but clear Sunday morning 8 Sphinx took on the half and 3 the 2-lap full marathon through the town centre and onto local villages and back into town via the dusty ‘Greenway.’ Conditions soon warmed up making for an enjoyable run around picturesque Warwickshire. The organisation was superb, as were the volunteers and crowds cheering us along our way.
Thank you to Stuart Bankbrook for this write up I ran the Boston UK Marathon on the 14th April (not the famous one in the USA), it is said to be the flattest marathon in the UK. Well I can confirm it is the flattest one I have ever run and I managed a new PB of 3:17:50. There are three races on offer the marathon, half marathon and fun run.

Congratulations to Ann, Rachel, Claire, Sergio, Darren and Pawel on taking part in the VLM. Thank you to Ann for the following write up I ran the London Marathon on 28 th April 2019. The whole experience really was amazing. The lead upto the Marathon was a challenging and a great experience. The early 5 am 20 mile training runs proved difficult through the winter training in all weather conditions.
