Today saw the second running of the Welbourne Castle 10k.After competing in the first event last year,there were 4 'Gold tops'who made the journey to the small village,just outside of Sleaford ,this year.The course had been changed this year,incorporating more fields and trails,and the large amount of rainfall experienced the day before the race,had made the condition of the course-especially in the final 3k-extremely challenging.
First Boston athlete home was Dennis Rainbow in 10th position,in a time of 41mins 36 seconds,followed by Aidan McClure,comfortably finishing as first Under 20 year old in 15th position in 42mins 29 seconds.Tony Tomblin made his customary late appearance just before the start to finish in 77th position in a time of 52 mins 39 seconds.With work committments meaning Tony is currently working 7 days a week and ,once again,had put in several hours of work the actual morning of the race,his dedication continues to inspire the rest of our road runners.
Diane Gill (Di-Hard-as she is now known at the club!)was making her competitive debut for the club,having recently moved into the area.Di finished in 108th position,well up among the female finishers,in a time of 56 minutes 21 seconds.
