Sandbach Striders

Possibly one of the biggest Striders turn outs you'll see all year, the Pie and Peas never fails to disappoint.

A resounding success!

With the COVID restrictions of 2021 behind us, it was a chance to fully embrace the rugby club as the home of the Sandbach 10k. With another sell out weeks in advance for the 10k, and of course the help from the members of Sandbac...

The weather couldn’t make its mind up about what it was going to do before the race as we moved from sunglasses to umbrellas back to sunglasses and then umbrellas again but by 09:30 it had settled on calm and cloudy for both races making it near to perfect conditions.

On Thursday 20 April, myself, Tony and Darren all set off to take part in the 2nd race of the Stone Master Marathoners Spring Treble series. The weather was just right for a 7pm run through Milford Common

Today myself, Jim and Gaynor ran the Newcastle 10K. There was over 500 people turned out on an absolutely fabulous sunny day.

'Coniston 14' is a very popular road race around lake Coniston (14 miles in total), held annually in aid of local charities. This was the 36th running of the event which was held on Saturday 25th March.

An early alarm wake up call (5.30am) meant it was Anglesey Half Marathon day. Sometimes I wonder why we put ourselves through it, and this was how I was definitely feeling at this unsociable hour in the morning. A hot shower and mug of tea soon lifted my spirits.
