London 10K
Pete Moor completed the London 10K on Sunday in a brilliant time of 41:34 finishing in the top 100 overall.
The Adderbury (Ultra)
The Adderbury Run has become a cult fixture on the Northampton Road Runners calendar nowadays and it is much loved for many reasons. There are two options described by the organisers as, "Mainly off-road and as close as we can get to a Half Marathon." There is also a, close as we can get to a 10K," and a walk too. The route takes you off road over stiles and through some picturesque villages offering a few challenges along the way.
Last year's trip took place in the middle of the UK's monsoon season and most of the routes was sodden with muddy puddles but this year's offering couldn't have been further removed, solid underfoot and temperatures soaring around 30 degrees by the finish, this claimed a few runners along the way. To add to the excitement, the routes measured an extra mile in distance making the half a 14 mile affair.
Andy Blaize was first home for the club in 1:40:24 and Rosanna Andrews claimed a prize for the second lady overall (1:44:22). Mark Kennedy enjoyed a good run in 1:51:03 and Ronnie Ambrose broke the two hours in 1:57:57. Close behind and also breaking two hours was Penny Andrews 1:59:56 and Steve Prior followed in 2:04:45.
Darren Baldwin, fresh from his recent off road marathon adventure, finished in a respectable 2:10:07 ahead of Jocelyn Granger 2:23:05 and Mrs Suzanne Baldwin (also an off road marathon adventurer (2:27:28).
Elaine Palmer was next to finish in 2:28:43 with Mick Clarke 2:32:57, Mary Davies 2:45:35 and Paula Pinney 2:50:04 completing the half challenge.
In the (as close to) 10K option, Wendy Parker finished in 1:02:06 with Mary and Tom Sullivan sharing a time of 01:09:34. Paige Pinkard and Sally Garrett completed the course in 1:24:54 and 1:25:01 respectively.
Mike Palmer and Jules Kennedy took part in the walk too.

North Devon Half and Marathon
Huge congratulations to Darren and Suzanne Baldwin for completing their first ever marathon.
Most runners go for a big event like London or maybe a local marathon for their first 26.2 but the Baldwins decided on the North Devon Marathon. Judging by the photos, if you have done the Grizzly or any kind of fell race up and down cliffs, well this looks like something of that nature. Sheer beauty and sheer pain.
Steve Prior also completed the half marathon distance on the day too, well done to Steve. He was delighted with the selection of cakes on offer at the end too.
Another great story for NRR travelling the country and running off road again. Well done all three of you.

Desborough Half Marathon
The Desborough Half Marathon made its debut on the Northamptonshire running calendar on 30th June. Organisers RAPID - Run Any Pace In Desborough put on a tough event including some challenging hills through a lovely countryside route with plenty of views to admire.
The marshals were friendly and encouraging and the race was well organised with water stops every three miles (including one at the top of the biggest climb at 10-11 miles). A great goody bag including medal and t-shire was on offer at the end with a smile from volunteers.
Top cap off a great run, the club's chairman personally congratulated everyone at the finish line and collected feedback to ensure this event becomes a regular annual offering.
Mark Kennedy completed the course in 1:43 and offered the following advice, "Don't have a curry the night before a half marathon!"
