Three Counties Running Club member tackles Great North Run

Three Counties Running Club's Alfie Grant travelled to Newcastle to take part in the Great North Run.

Grant was among 60,000 runners who took part on the day which is an incredible amount of participants.

The weather could have been better as it rained the entire race but apart from that it was perfect running conditions.

Grant had a fantastic run finishing in 4,487th position and a course personal best of 1.40.56.

Elsewhere, Melvin Green took on the lovely undulating Sawtry 10 miler with milder and drier weather conditions.

Green had a fantastic run, using this as training for the Peterborough half marathon in October finishing in a time of 1:47:23.

Saturday saw Les Phillips and a few club members travel to Sandringham parkrun to support Les on his 25th parkrun.

The first home for the club was Viaceslav Goncarenko in 23:48 (CPB, first in age), followed by James Stace 24:33, Les Phillips 27:07, Daniel High 27:09, Tabitha Cook 28:17, Tracey Else 31:52, Hayley Cook 34:02, Moira Macdonald 34:12 and Lesley Phillips 44:46.
