On 29th September Club members Judith Rodwell, Mandy Harrison and Janet Stables took part in the first Hart Trail Half Marathon which actually measured 15.2 miles. Conditions were very wet and challenging from the village of Hart through muddy woodland and onto the Hart to Haswell walkway and up to the old pit village of Shotton, returning through Monk Hesleden. Judith stormed home in a fantastic 2 hours 43 mins 24 seconds Janet and Mandy had trained since January for this event and is the longest they have run to date and completed in 3 hour 56 mins 56 seconds. They ran the event to celebrate Janet’s 50th birthday and thoroughly enjoyed it despite the really wet conditions.
