Welcome to Wargrave Runners

Well done to all our Runners who braved London on Sunday (22/4/12). What a perfect day for running. Finally all that training paid off.  Some amazing performances here and a World record for our former Secretary...

A busy couple of weeks on the racing front with Reading Half Marathon and Maidenhead Easter 10....Ooh and a rather special "Olympic Park" run. Congratulations to all who took part in these races, great to see so many of our members our there participating and indeed excelling.

Sarah Evans had a great race and Chris Moseley did exceptionally well having run in the National Lottery Olympic Park Run the previous day. Chris completed this 5 mile race in 29:47 and finished in 73rd place (out of about 5000 entrants) thus becoming the first Wargrave Runner to cross the finish line in the Olympic Stadium!

Reading Half:

And at Maidenhead Easter 10: Charlie Langley did very well, apparently having run sub 1:15 in the Reading Half Marathon.

Dave Sayer also took part, finishing in 1:22:28. Tony and Mal Evans were marshalling and Dave Moseley, who had gone as a spectator, ended up helping at one of the marshalling positions Berkshire Champs:

Berkshire Championships,

On Sunday afternoon we held our Autumn Mile on the Grass and were delighted with the enthusiasm shown, particularly by our younger runners. Also some very competitive spirit from the seniors. The running was followed by tea and cakes in the very smart new Cricket pavilion. Thanks you to everyone who made cakes, or marshalled on the day and also to our runners for taking part.

I am delighted to report that we had a most enjoyable run on Friday night with a number of notable highlights in our diverse and select field of runners. Most notably Doris Eggett was our First Lady home (on handicap) and completed the course, on her birthday, in 14:46. This was a great achievement for a wonderful lady now well into her 9th decade. Well done Doris. Flowers were presented on the finish line with our very best wishes. At the other end of the scale Spike at just 20 months completed the course in 24:21 and collected a few Dandelions on the way! From such as start we will await great achievements in a few years time. Some wonderful running across the whole spectrum and well done to Chris Belton for sprinting home in 5:39 making him our fastest runner on the night.  Full results are on the News Update page, please log in or use the link I sent you.

Many congratulations to our runners pounding down the tow path at this year's Down Tow Up Flow half marathon.... Some very quick times and creditable performances expecially on such a hot day!
