Hardmoors White Horse
Sunday saw the 3rd trail marathon of the year for Hardmoors. As always Hardmoors offer three distances of full marathon, half and 10k but as is expected these are always longer than advertised. The courses are challenging and start and finish at the Visitors Centre at Sutton Bank. The full marathon and 10k include a descent to Lake Gormire and then a climb back up to the Cleveland Way to continue the races.
Three Ripon Runners completed the full marathon route, which was in fact 27.3 miles with 4200ft of climb. Results are as followed:
Claire Baker 5:52
Lena Conlin 6:15
Kim Holden 6:19
There were also three Ripon Runners who completed the 10k route. This was actually 7.1 miles. First back was Kathryn Smith in 1:31 followed by Linda Cadman and Nicole Sutton in 1:41 with Linda taking 2 minutes off her time last year and claiming the FV60 prize.
