Angie Sadler reports on an excellent run in Bath...
Four Tewkesbury AC runners completed the course. After a chilly start the conditions were ideal for the 10,000 runners! Fist home was myself Angie Sadler 1hr 27mins (ran really well!) 5th Lady Vet
Stuart Buchan 1hr 30mins 29sec
Phillip Howells 1hr 43mins 58sec
Martyn Cox 1hr 57min 17sec
Stuart adds "I took my place amongst a field of over 8,000 runners for the Bath Half Marathon on Sunday in pretty good running conditions. I managed to maintain a good pace all the way round and a good sprint finish enabled me to record a VERY pleasing time of 1:29.55, just breaking the 1hr 30min mark for the first time! A PB by just over 3 minutes and a place of 516 (out of 8,165 finishers).
"The race was well supported with some great crowds cheering you on around the course, plus of course my own personal cheerleaders which made all the difference in the finishing straight!
"After the recent injury niggles and a poor Gloucester 20 run it was a real confidence boost before London to run such a good time and more importantly with no injury worries."
