Ryedale Run and club champs

I did the Ryedale run last weekend in a time of 1h15m which was a big improvement (13m) on last year when I had a shocker. I have a fondness for the race but would like to shake Malton up to try and get some support and a decent finish and to make it a good distance instead of the ridiculous 10,75 mile. Today saw our club championships which despite the great efforts of the organisers is a bit of a hotch potch as far as the race goes. At least we have managed to get the trophy awarded to the fastest runner this year. Once more lots of dubious times were given as the "handicap" to work off. This system really does not work if people cannot be honest. Next weekend we are going for a trip to the lakes to run in the Langdale half marathon which will be a little different from the other race going on next weekend!
