ARC Hill Race Report
Posted in Events, Wakes on Wednesday July 5, 2023| Leave a Comment »
A fantastic write up and picture from Ashbourne Running Club following last night’s hill race – as always, a pleasure to have them join us.
” Parwich Hill Race – super turnout from the club with a special welcome to those running tonight who only recently started with us in our Thursday group.
Ewan Busfield (honorary ARC member?) took the win in style from Chris Patterson & Zach Lomas. Emily Sanders & Molly Busfield were second and third females, Ewan also took first to the top of the hill & Martin Wright won a cup & mug for most venerable runner.
The results took a while due to the rainstorm that hit the race and dissolved many race numbers but congrats & thanks to Parwich.org for sticking with it and giving us a great event. “

Thank You
