With the hottest week of the year an amazing representation from the club in race events
Don Thompson Mile
Club event instead of a usual Tuesday training session in honour of the legendary Don Thompson where a mile seems like the longest sprint in the world but a fantastic turn out from club members and a number of personal bests achieved.
