I’m sure you have all been eagerly anticipating the report on the Willow Foundation 10K run and our runners’ performances!

In very testing conditions everybody put in a very good performance and despite survival being the main aim, some very creditable times were put in, especially considering that by the end of the race the surface was becoming somewhat slippery (being partly run on grass) and into driving rain, wind and hail.

A special mention must go to Nat Young whom it seems must have been training very hard over the last few months as he went off like the proverbial hare, only to be reeled in by Terence two-thirds of the way in with Terence coming in first of the SA Law runners. 

The finishing order on Sunday was:

Terence Ritchie       46.36
Gary Dunger           47.03
Nat Young              47.06
Rob Ryall                52.12
Chris Alexander     57.54
Simon Walsh          58.23
Tracy Lacey-Smith 59.09
Nikki Petken           65.36 

I am sure you will all join me in congratulating all those who participated, and many of whom are no doubt now saying “never again” after the experience. 

For a full (humorous) account by another participant of the challenges yesterday see the RunningAmok blog.

And it is not too late of course to sponsor the team, visit www.justgiving.com/SALaw, it would be great to reach £1000!
