Teesdale AC

ON Sunday, May 6, five members took part in the inaugural time trial for 2018.

The challenge is to complete one lap of a 6.7km route in the safest and fastest time.

The challenge will be held four times during the 2018 season and is open to all club members.

After a quick brief, and under the supervision of time keepers Amanda and Simon Pettitt, the five runners set off from Teesdale Sports Centre.

They headed out toward Stainton Village and returning down Coal Road before one last sprint across the finish.

All runners returned in high spirits and collected a well earned cooling bottle of water.

Congratulations to Joshua Mawer on crossing the finish line first in an impressive time of 27mins 46.37secs.

Sean Williams followed soon after in 31.20.55, Alan Bray 34.18.33, Skye Archer 39.55.05 and Trudy Layton 44.06.34.

Special thanks to Amanda and Simon for volunteering as time keepers and arranging water for all runners crossing the finish.
