Adderbury Running Festival

The Adderbury Running Festival on 12th July is a popular event for NRR members, a short hop to Oxfordshire for this multi-terrain course through beautiful countryside.

The beauty of the event is the friendliness of the marshals and the unpredictable course that unfolds...it has changed each year for the past four years.

The longer distance is the halfish, which this year measured at just over a half, an extra lap around the field was free of charge.  Also in the mix is the weather, this year was blindingly hot whereas two years ago the course was flooded...ah British summertime eh?

On the field, Mark Kennedy, running his fourth Adderbury, was first home for the club in 1:50:15.  Steve Prior was next but was distraught at the lac of cake this time...he finished in 1:53:56.  Darren Baldwin finished in 2:00:51 and John Eales in 2:19:42.  Suzanne Baldwin completed the line up in 2:20:30.

In the 10K was Paul Braddock and daughter Emily, completing her first 10K in 1:21:16.
