Sharon and I headed to Richmond Park this morning (Saturday) to run the second official Richmond Park Time Trial (RPTT) 5k race. Weather was once again ideal although Sharon wasn’t feeling particularly up for it and I had run rather hard yesterday (more on that in another post soon!).

After last weeks top two positions were taken by members of Ranelagh Harriers this week it was dominated by members of The Stragglers - who came home with the first three positions. Ranelagh (our ‘first claim’ running club) took positions four and five, and I ran well enough to secure fourth place with a time of 18:59 (for info last week my time was 18:42).

Sharon ran the course in a time of 27:58 (last week her time was 28:27). There were 51 runners taking part this week.
