Third round of the Summer Series, an undulating 3 miles from the Yew Tree Inn at All Stretton. This time just Gary and Tom representing Croft and having a ‘sharpener’ before Duddon the coming weekend. Gary got straight back in the groove finishing 89th in 38.32 ( 1st in cat) Tom toddled in 113th in 43.39 (2nd in cat). Gary again finished in the hands of the paramedics with a nasty fall 200 metres from the finish. With strict instructions to go to A & E at Shrewsbury Gary insisted on collecting his award then going home!

Joshua Boyle a slight lad of under 16 won in 27.37, 1st lady was Mel Price in 29.39. There were 132 finishers.
