Pie’athlon – 14 December 2014

Not much more racing on the build up to Christmas (cross country to be reported later) so did not think much in the road races or off road endurance was happening this week but Martin Hookway to the rescue:

As it happened the leader took a wrong turn resulting in us being 4th and 5th to about 25th and 26th after 4.7mi and having to ice skate up and down extra cobbled hill then I fell into a bog that went up to my waist, sooooo funny.”

Parkrun – 13 December 2014

Doncaster parkrun had 13 DAC athletes take part, 2nd man overall to finish was Martin James and 1st lady to finish was Rose James.  Highest age graded athlete to finish was Rosemary Armstrong.  The course was partially frozen making for some slippery areas but the damp area had not frozen so was quite tough going.  Good turnout from the club!
