Flintshire 10km

Not so many runners out as in previous years but a good day for the club. Several other events on the same day. A very wet start following heavy rain overnight. This is a good event attracting well over 300 runners. A good number of club runners but clearly very popular with unattached runners. Fun runners would be a good term, because they were having fun, despite the weather. It was really good to see several friends, including an ex Buckley runners and an ex colleague of mine doing her first 10k.

The ladies (Erika, Rebecca, Margaret and Susanne) took first team prize and the men (Simon, Steve, Dave and Mike) took second in the mens team event. Erika had a superb run, 1^st lady and 12^th overall and Simon was 5th and 1^st MV40
