A trio of NWRRC members took part in the Abersoch half-marathon last Saturday with Stuart Culverhouse coming home first for the club in 28th place overall, out of nearly 300 entrants. And he also celebrated a new course PB and finished two-minutes quicker than last time in 1.33.35 and he was 3rd in his M50 age cat.
Super-veteran Sandy Johnston confirmed his pedigree with a superb result of 1.42.26 to win his M75 cat with a new PB in 62nd place, whilst Gwen Charlton ran well in 2.20.44, and she was 260th overall, and the 86th female finisher.
After the race Sandy said: “Just ran a huge over-75 PB at the Abersoch half after 10 days of hot and hilly training in Italy, with my daughter Alice, and It might even be a North Wales record, too?
