Great running, team!

🏃‍♂️ 100km. 31°C. Done and Dusted!

Massive congratulations to Kris for taking on the legendary Race to the Stones and absolutely crushing it!

Running 100km is a challenge on its own, but doing it in 31°C+ heat? That’s not just a run, that’s a masterclass in sheer willpower. While most of us were probably struggling to stay cool in the shade, Kris was out there putting in the miles.

The Official Stats:

Total Time: 14:55:41

Overall Position: 227 / 729

Gender Position: 187 / 511

Category Position: 129 / 275

This wasn't a solo act! A huge shoutout to his incredible support crew, you guys were the backbone of this achievement, keeping him fueled, hydrated, and motivated when the heat really started to bite.

Rest up, Kris! Feet up, a cold drink in hand, and bask in the glory. You’ve absolutely earned it! 🍻🏅

Medal Monday!

Congratulations to Steve for smashing the Eastbourne Sprint Duathlon over the weekend! 🏃‍♂️🚴‍♂️🏃‍♂️

Here is how he stacked up:

Finish Time: 01:41:13 ⏱️

Category Position: 3rd out of 5 🌟

Gender Position: 9th out of 15 🚀

Overall Position: 10th out of 19 👏

A massive shoutout to everyone who attended, and to our Town Mayor, Jack Jones, who swapped a usual running night for a community litter pick!

Instead of chasing miles, we hit the streets to clear litter and keep our town beautiful.

Thank you all for showing true community pride and proving that teamwork makes the dream work. You've left our local spaces looking fantastic! 🙌
