Kate Mills continued picking up the prizes with victory at the Horndon on the Hill 10k.

Gary Chandler was runner up at the Stansted 10k in a slow time due to the heat. (That's what he's saying anyway)

The Striders were prominent at three trail races from Stock, Willingale and Stisted but to date we only have results from Roger’s epic in the sun. Allen Smalls of Colchester Harriers was first home with the top Striders being the Woodyards. Chris Beazeley won the coverted sock prize.

And a belated congratulations to Eli Baker for her fine run at the Stockholm Marathon the other week.
