On a lovely late spring day, 3 GRC members made their way to Deeping St James to take part in the Deeping Rotary 10k charity race. The race takes place through town and county and is a flat single circuit which finished on the playing fields.
The 163 runners taking part were treated to idea conditions for running with warm sunshine and runners encountered cooling head and side winds in places.
The first one back from Grantham Running Club was Paul Jepson finishing in 50.58. Zane Wojtowicz completed the race in 54:27, shortly followed by Richard Urquhart 54:52.
The men’s race was won by Thomas Preston in a time of 35:02. The first female was Josie Knight in 41:29. All the finishers were rewarded with an impressive medal and the event was very well organised.
