There was a cracking turnout of 30 Bellas today at the Balloch to Clydebank Half Marathon. Conditions were pretty much perfect, so ideal for some good racing and some fast times. The Bella crew did not disappoint:
Louise Ross won the prize for 4th Female
Mary Senior won the prize for 2nd FV40
Louise, Romy and Mary won 1st female team prize
Coach Paterson got the prize for 5th Male (as well an awesome London Marathon ‘Championship Start’ sub-75 qualifying time)
The first three Bella men were also awarded 2nd team prize – woohoo! But on closer inspection, Greenock Glenpark were clearly 2nd and we were 3rd. Doh!
Most importantly though was a whole raft of PBs today, which is always great to see all that hard work in training paying off. Asterisks have been dished out below, but let us know if you’ve been missed out from the PB hall of fame…..
Well done everyone, you did yourselves and your club proud.
