For the Torbay Half Marathon
Firstly I have to congratulate every member of the gym who took part, as they all did fantastically well and gave 100%.
It was a beautiful, if blustery, day at Paignton. The event was well run and well attended.
A great event for anyone and everyone to get involved in, there was even a 1 mile fun run attended by families, toddlers and even pets!
The standard of competition in the half marathon itself was outstanding, the pace of some of the runners was phenomenal. The race winner, Toby Lambert ran a time of 1hr 7mins!
Our members did themselves though with Paul Duffield, Anthony Hirst, George and Lorraine Barbour, Rebbeca Refern, Clare Steer, John Ariss, Mark Dodge, Clare Williams, Tom Sizer and Kelly Allen all taking part.

Hi there
I have a young Kenyan athlete (female) expecting to be in the UK during late April to July and would like to know more about your race.
It would be helpful if you could confirm the women's prizes (which I cannot find listed in detail on the web) and any bonuses for course records.
Could we please receive a written invitation to take part?
This can be sent via idea@mcr1.poptel.org.uk and addressed to Ogla Kimaiyo c/o Chris Paul, 31 Westfield Road, M21 0SW.
Ogla was ranked 28th in the world women's rankings as of this January, now 48th as she has not been racing. PB 31.5x for 10k, 70.xx for Half.
She is expecting to run faster this year as she is still young at 20.
Chris Paul
