We had a lovely evening at The Hyde Park Harriers Summer Mile. This event was our 'race of the month' for June & did not disappoint. We had a great time testing out our speed & received a chocolate bar, beer & medal for our efforts. Well done to Michelle & Richard, our fastest female & male trophy winners.

More success for Lakers. This time in the shape of Simon.
"...just to say to all, don't give up on your running goals! After many years & races I finally got a podium position in my age category today, at the James Herriot trail race. Might not seem much to some but I've never achieved it...
Beautiful day (bit warm though), stunning scenery & a race of two halves.
Even had enough winnings for a pint with Paul..."
​
Well said Simon & a massive well done. Cheers!​​​​​​
