Bridlington Road Runners hit top form in busiest week since before the Covid-19 pandemic

The schedule began with the latest round of the East Hull Harriers Summer League, a seven-mile course at Sproatley last Tuesday, writes John Edwards.

Nine members tackled one of the longer distances in the series, with Martin Hutchinson, Graham Lonsdale, junior Micah Gibson, Heidi Baker and Laura Nurse all getting below the one-hour mark.

Dom Webster was first over-45 and Heidi Baker is at the top of the series Handicap Standings after five races.

The club was out in force on Friday evening for the Sledmere Sunset Trail, picking up a couple of second-placed finishes.

Scott Hargreaves took second in the challenging off-road 10k race, with Joe Shepherdson securing seventh spot on a warm and sunny evening.

Bob Eyre was first over 70, and Martin Hutchinson and Linda Hall were third in their respective age categories.

Mim Ireland in 39th place was Bridlington’s fastest lady and Evie Lakes was second girl in the 3.6 Taster run.

On a weekend of tremendous achievements, Danny Brunton claimed a personal best time as he finished third in the Hull Half Marathon, Becky Clifton was second over 50 in the AJ Bell
