Runners faced surprisingly hot but otherwise ideal conditions as 14 determined entrants took on the challenge of the HubPeople 20 Mile Road Race at the NSC on Sunday.
The men’s event saw an intense duel between Matt Callister and David Williams, who matched each other stride for stride for 35 laps. However, as Williams began to suffer from cramp, Callister seized his opportunity, breaking away in the final stages to claim victory in 2 hours, 5 minutes, and 31 seconds. Williams fought hard to finish second in 2:06:28, with Paul Jennings securing third place in 2:08:22.
In the women's category, Harriet Hancox ran a strong and consistent race to take first place in 2:48:45, while Jayne Farquhar followed closely behind, finishing second in 2:51:34
A huge thank you to our sponsors - HubPeople, volunteers, and everyone else who made this event possible. We look forward to seeing you all at the next race, the Hansard Global Spring Handicap on 20.03.25.
