Age Category Firsts



This week I picked up my trophy for being first in Age Category 70+ at the South Bucks 10K. However there were only four running in my age category. I can add this to my other three firsts.


The medal was for being first in the 60+ from the Charvil 5K, the only time it was ever run. It was presented to me by Theresa May - see posting 17th June 2012. There were only two in my age category and I think the other man walked!

The two certificates from Milton Keynes Festival of Running - the Half Marathon 2017 and the 10K 2018 both had five runners in the 70+ category.

All put into perspective when at the Great South Run this year I was twelfth out of 55 in my age category and last year sixteenth out of 80!
