What a Sunday for SSA at the Southend 3K & 10K!
The start line of the children’s 3K was absolutely awash with SSA vests, and our athletes didn’t disappoint, putting in some fantastic performances.

A huge well done to every one of you. We loved seeing so many of our young athletes out there, giving it everything and representing the club so brilliantly.
And it wasn’t just the kids! We had a great turnout of SSA parents taking on the 10K too, some proudly running in the SSA vest, while others ran for themselves or represented their own running clubs.
It was also great to see members of Leigh Striders out in force. With SSA and Leigh Striders teaming up for the Southern Athletics League next year, it was brilliant to see both clubs represented together on the roads.
There were some seriously impressive 10K performances too, with several sub-50-minute finishes coming through.
And a special shoutout to Coach Jack, who ran his first ever race! A fantastic first outing and great preparation as he continues his build-up to his half marathon.
Huge well done to everyone who ran, whether it was your first race, a new PB or simply getting out there and giving it a go.
We’re proud of you all!
