Race Results w/e 14/07/19

15 July 2019 - By James Blackshaw

First off, a big thank you to Jason Lilley for driving the results bus for the last two weeks whilst I was off. Annoyingly, he did a really good job of it, and didn’t make anywhere near as many typos as I normally do. Sometimes an amateur will stitch up a professional. Cheers mate.

 

 

Essex Track 10k – 10/07/19

Maldon 5k Handicap

It was the last race of the Tiptree Road Runner’s Maldon 5k Handicap Series on Thursday, and WRC was well represented. Their handicap races differs a little from ours in that you know from the start that everyone racing qualifies for the handicap results. Congratulations to Stephen Sawyer for completing four of the races and making the final leaderboard.
