OVERTON 5 ROAD RACE
Overton 5 Mile was the first race of the 2023/24 road race league. Nearly 500 runners raced five miles under a very hot September sun. Two racers pushed themselves so much on the hilly course in the heat, that they all but collapsed. Showing dogged determination they dug deep in the finishing straight as they staggered to the line. CoSARC’s results were : Aaron Wilson 28:40, Shaun Brown 29:53, Matthew Gervais 29:58, Dave Gervais 31:42, Mark Wilde 32:50, Tamara Lake 33:01, Angus Payton 33:25, Ollie Stone 33:39, Ruth Holloway 35:06, Ollie Martins 36:58, James Ballard 37:07, Edward Cane 37:22, Vicky Clark 41:44, Alison Sloane 44:10, Alison Scott 44:37, Paul Slaughter 44:57, Heather Hitchens 45:28, Jo Marks 50:03, Michelle Boucher 51:28, Colin Martin 1:07:20.
