SHARRON'S ROUND-UP 15.02.17
(Missing from main photo Ben Tull, Nick Daniels and Patrick Casey ……. Photo dodgers!!).
A biting wind and freezing water awaited those intrepid runners from Taunton AC who tackled the mountainous hills of the Humdinger Half Marathon last weekend. However the conditions did not deter the hardy souls from TAC who all went on to record course PBs, with many prizes to boot, including both the prestigious ladies and men's team prizes.
Hannah Taunton came across the line as second lady 1.25.09, Kim Hill 3rd lady 1.28.18, Kate Drew 1st senior lady 1.32.39, Kirstie Booth 1.34.16, Ellie Steer 1.44.55
Ben Tull 3rd overall 1.23.00, Jon Gilling 1st vet 40 1.24.33, Keith Paul 1st vet 50 1.25.32, Simon Tranter 1.28.31, Simon Patterson 1.31.37, Craig Whitemore 1.33.07, Patrick Casey 1.46.32.
