We had more marathon runners for this week after some brilliant efforts from Berlin a fortnight ago – this time 7 runners took on the gruilling 26.2 mile event in two separate events. Firstly we had Adam Masterson (3:23:44) & Gavin Hall (4:53:59) at the Chester Marathon event – Gavin completing his 11th marathon of the year, one more left to complete his 12 in 12 challenge for charity ( https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/gavins12in12 - raising money for Race Against Dementia ).
Next up we had 5 members who travelled across the pond to USA for the Bank of America Chicago Marathon – Keith Blake carried on his major marathon feast completing the course in 4:17:04, two weeks after running Berlin. Mark Banfield was able to secure his marathon target of under the three hour mark by legging it for the last 300 metres with the clock ticking away – his sprint to the line meant he finished the course in 2:59:57 – reaching marathon training plan perfection for a sub-3hour!
