A fantastic morning for the race, cold but dry, blue skies, with a bit of wind. Great turn out from the club and a great return to form from Carl Ryde running his fastest 10 mile since 2013 and winning the race.
Lots of PB’s for Mark Benson, Martin James, James Smith, Chris Pye, Adam Brailsford?, Gary Long, Elizabeth Jackson.

Parkruns
We have started some annual league tables for Doncaster AC athletes who compete in any parkrun. We have lots of athletes competing each week and the league tables can be found in the rankings menu and they include all the years times for male and female, age graded results and number of park runs completed in the year. Check it out and perhaps we can award the top 3 at the end of the year. Anyone willing to help keep it up to date please contact Martin James, thanks.
