Running for RP

A big congratulations to John, Grant and Mike for completing the Manchester 10k.

The boys were in the city bright and early on Sunday morning and raring to go! You could taste the excitement and the nerves were held at bay.

The boys headed to their assembly point at 10.30am where they took part in the mass warmup and were ecouraged by Russell Watson singing you raise me up.

The boys were in the pink wave of runners and completed the 10k route in 1 hr 8 mins. A great effort. They even finished the run saying they could have cut the time down had they been in a different wave and want to return next year to complete it in a better time!

The rain held off for the majority of the run and only started when the boys were on the last leg and reaching the finish line. We were all soaked to the skin  by the time we met them after the run.

We are all very proud of them and wish them the best of luck with the Llanelli 10k in June.
