Well done everyone who took part in and supported us during the 10k today.
A fabulous day for me, PB of 42:49 but even better was that my daughter(Charlotte) crossed the line after 5 months of training in 1hr and 57 secs, very proud moment.
The representation of the club today was fantastic and Im sure this will lead to another surge of new members.
Great support from the Strider marshalls and other supporters too.
If this was Facebook I would 'like' this status. Well done everyone- we had a fantastic time marshalling, I loved cheering you all on and hoped you enjoyed the day. It's days like these that I really love being a member of the Striders. I think we have so much to be proud of- a great club, great members and a fantastic atmosphere. Cheers all

I can only add to what people have posted above - what an amazing day for the Striders! It was great to see everyone's hard work paying off with some impressive PB's and well deserved accolades.
It was a pleasure to cheer you all on and seeing so many Striders finishing strong as they crested the Tesco bridge is something I'll never forget.
As always, I'm proud to be a member of this fantastic club and team mates with such wonderful people.
Well done again everyone!
