From Merthyr Mawr to Gogledd Cymru, where Rachel Lammin & Owain Zerilli completed the Ras yr Wyddfa! The course involved a 10 mile race up and down the tallest mountain in Wales! Truly amazing running! 🙌
Saturday also saw Gethin Evans taking part in the 100 mile rat race in Northumberland, huge kudos for completing 60 miles of challenging and hilly terrain!
Finally, Matt Green did a PB on the piano and gave a wonderful rendition of ‘Espresso’ to Reading train station on Saturday morning 🎶
