Moreton-in-Marsh Fire College Help for Heroes 10k - 11th April
The inaugural Help for Heroes 10K took place at Moreton-in-Marsh Fire College last Sunday and what a fabulous event it was. The two lap course wound through the Fire College and tremendous effort had been made to make this as exciting as possible; passing a plane wreck, motorway car pile-up, buildings on fire to name just a few.
The race attracted a wide spectrum of runners, from race winner and former Bourton Roadrunner, Tom Newbold in 35:10, to fun runners. There were 155 entrants and numbers will surely grow, as the Fire College intend making this an annual event.
Second, third and fourth in the race were Bourton's Lewis Gray 36:32, Conor Shoemark 37:08 and Darren Long 37:59. Andy Peaston, Rob Humphris and Brian Hulcup recorded 43:35, 44:03 and 47:02, while Finn Shoemark in his first ever 10K did an amazing 48:48.
Suzanne Keyte in her first 10K for the club recorded 47:14 and 3rd Senior Lady. Roisin Wood was just behind in 47:33 and Liz Hulcup finished first over 50 with 49:34.
