Sheffield Half Marathon

RUN JOHN RUN!!

Many congratulations to all who completed this year's Sheffield Half Marathon. Weather was glorious (prolly a bit too warm for those who were running, especially those with fancy costume on!) and many turned out to watch this year's race despite the event being on the same day as the London Marathon. Around 5,500 competed in the half marathon with Jason Ward taking first place with a time of 1:08:02. (Rebecca Robinson - womens 1st place with a very respectable time of 1:14:52)

My friends ran and all completed the half marathon. Pauline's other half, Roger Newman, finished in a very good time of 1:35:41, Lloyd Wilson and Gary Cummings crossed the finish line in 1:50:25 and 1:52:12 respectively and John Butterworth completing his first ever half marathon in 2:20:09. Well done guys!

Some pictures of the runners...and supporters too!
