Redcar RWC Open Mark Byrne Promenade Walks inc Soup & Roll League 13
From an original entry of forty there were 29 starters on the sea front promenade course that will be used next August for the 100 Miles. The weather was overcast which probably kept the numbers of general public down.
Martin Fisher made a welcome return to the area to lead proceedings from the usual stalwarts before a slow-starting Ben Wears eventually assumed control. It was good to see Halesowen’s Julie and Lynn Bellfield make the journey up, besides Colin Vesty, and indeed Ed Shillabeer all the way from Devon on his 76th birthday to take the first Southern walker award. Novice races for the associated Northern Soup & Roll League were also held at 2.5 and 5km for all age groups with the latter won by the host club’s improving Paul Roberts.
Redcar RWC won the team event from Lancashire WC and then York CIU, for whom Graham Jackson took the Handicap award. Indeed there was a very decent prize list on offer thanks to popular Mark Byrne’s generous sponsorship, with most winning something and all involved enjoyed the free hospitality after. Well done to Redcar RWC for this promotion.
A special mention must be made regarding John Paddick who, having organised this event, is now stepping down from club duties. John has made an enormous impact in Cleveland over the years at the helm of local affairs, achieved a great deal in the service of Race Walking and we wish him every success in the future as he returns to the road.
