Congratulations to Zoe - and last night's times

WELL DONE ZOE!
She completed the Great North Run in a creditable 2 hours 33 minutes, ran all the way and raised over £500 for the Alzheimers Society - a fantastic achievement!

Last night's times:
  • Advanced: 6.09km in under 39 minutes. We did the first (hilly & partially off road) 5K in a respectable 31 minutes.
  • Standard: 5km in just under 40 minutes (I had 39:44 on my watch).

Well done to all - some fantastic running!
