Sean O’Donnell recorded an impressive 56:39. Running in the event’s canicross 10k were Debs Pacey and Lisa Robinson, who finished in 1:06, a very impressive performance by all.

Tone Zoners were also at the Worthing 10k with another big turnout. The weather was perfect for a day at the beach, but hot for a race.

A total of 29 runners took the short trip along the coast. The first three home for the club were Gill, who recovered well from his midweek triumph, Peter Lee, carrying on from his fine form and crossing the line in 37:10 and Sean Power, the youngster who never stops improving and who finished in 40:55.

Adam Norgett set a new PB of 45:15. Carolyn Stapley, Kate O’Connor and Karl Hayes all finished in 52 minutes.
