Ellis and Johnson star at the Chichester 10k

Well done to Matt Ellis and Hayley Johnson, who defied precarious conditions to make it to the start line of the Chichester Priory 10k. Ellis clocked a new road PB of 31.24 as he finished 16th in a highly competitive field, led home by Benedict Whitby in a scorching 29.37. Hayley meanwhile clocked 45.26 as she moves ever closer to a sub 45 time!!!

Also in action at the Blackmore Vale 1/2 marathon - Andrew Gibbons who clocked a time of 1:53:14.

Well done all!

Weekend Roundup!

It seems not every member of Westbury was running in the Bristol Half today! Karl Dunn completed his debut Marathon in Nottingham, finishing the tough (and lonely in the 2nd half) course in a time of 3:33. Bob Pringle headed down to Somerset yesterday to compete in the Somerset Moors and Levels Half marathon. On a challenging off-road course Bob did well to finish in 1:59:11 for 20th place! Across in Wales Rich Collinson and Hayley Johnson took part in the Lake Vrnwy Half Marathon. Rich finished 27th in 1:18:26 and Hayley in 1:44:33 for 69th place in the ladies event. In the Chippenham Half Marathon Simon Knight clocked 1:31:42 and Kin Cheung 1:55:48. Meanwhile over the shorter distances, Anthony Glover clocked 4:29 for the 1500m, in the final Avon League race of the season representing Yate AC!

Great effort from all!
