Leo Holmes' Roundup w/c 21st July
(For images please see our instagram or facebook pages)
From road, to trail, to triathlon, Croups were out smashing it on all terrains last weekend!
On Saturday, Lolly Evans completed the Y Domen Fawr Fell race in Ebbw Vale, involving 549m of climbing over a 9.3km course! Those climbs and descents looked absolutely brutal, da iawn Lolly ๐
From Ebbw Vale, to Cornwood, near Plymouth, and, if itโs an event near Plymouth, itโs of course most likely a Louise Flynn win. This was the case once again here, where Louise took ๐ฅ lady in the 10k! ๐คฉ
Sunday saw the return of the Magor 10k, an event always popular with our club members. Near perfect temperatures led to smashing performances across the board, including a number of new PBs, as well as category wins:
- Claire Johnson ๐ฅ F75 in 1:13:45. And, as Mick points out, is potentially the new Welsh F80 record! ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟ๐ฎ
- Julie Scholey ๐ฅ F65 in 50:02
- Croups ๐ฅ Menโs team
- Croups ๐ฅ womenโs team
- Phil Hambleton ๐ฅ overall in 32:38, a PB!
- Emily Fell ๐ฅ woman and ๐ฅ senior woman in 37:19
- Tom Flitcroft 4th overall & Ben Kennedy 5th overall in 33:01 & 33:07 respectively, PBs for both of them ๐
Lastly, but very much not least, a huge congratulations to Paddy and Rachel McDowell who also completed the Broadhaven Triathlon on Sunday! ๐
