#clickyourclock on your weekend result
Did you race this weekend? Many of the results are now in. Make sure you #clickyourclock on yours before 12 o' clock tomorrow to be in with a chance of winning a Polar FT4 heart rate monitor!
From those results that are in, the biggest races, last week, were:
York 10K - 5,128 finishers
Bushy parkrun - 968 finishers
Regent's Park 10K - 686 finishers
Wedding Day 7K - 600 finishers
Indian Queen's Hlaf Marathon - 549 finishers
Cheshire Half Marathon - 523 finsishers
The Asda Foundation York 10k raised tens of thousands of pounds for many local charities, including Macmillan Cancer Support, Martin House Children’s Hospice, St Leonard’s Hospice and the Jane Tomlinson Appeal.
The weather was near perfect for the race with cool conditions and some hazy sunshine after earlier rain. The course took the runners across the Millennium Bridge and through the city centre past York Minster, cheered on by thousands of spectators.
The event included the Arena Group York Mini and Junior runs, which started and finished in the main race arena on Knavesmire Road.
Steve Robinson (handicap 1.5) won the men's race in 32:57 and took 0.1 off his handicap score and Michelle Nolan (handicap 2.3) (pictured) was first woman in 36:45. Michelle's score slipped by 0.1 from 2,2, a score she achieved after the Darlington South parkrun the week before.
Stephen Holt (handicap 10.0) is currently leading the #clickyourclock competition after running the Worsley Woods parkrun and taking 2.1 off his handicap score. Stephen has put his running back on track this summer after a quiet spell last winter. His handicap score had slipped to 17.7 in March this year but he has done several parkruns since then and, this weekend, hit his best ever score ever and made an improvement on last weekend's score of 9.53%.
The competition isn't over until 12 o' clock tomorrow though and some of you have yet to #clickyourclock.
Did you improve your % score by more than Stephen? If so, be sure to #clickyourclock before 12 o' clock tomorrow when the competition finishes for this week!
