Swindon Specials

Swindon to Yeovil - the Special Green and Whites

87 miles, what an achievement, with Nick and Bungy doing the lot, but with great contributions from others all to raise money for Somerset Air Ambulance and the Football Trust

At the finish

My GPS watch gave up at 36 miles, my lying Nike app died at 72 miles but my hand held gps worked a treat and Nick Brooke and I did 140.3 km and google tells me that is 140.3 kilometres = 87.1783783 miles. If anyone has any spare legs I could do with a couple. Going to try and walk the dog now to help, but only a 1 miler

Keeping it going through the streets

Andrew Brown did great, a marathon distance...

Swindon to Yeovil ... 87 miles? ... I only clocked up 26.2 - sorry Paul Allen, I never thought I would refer to a Marathon distance as "only" :-) Each had there own personal targets and determination to reach them. For me the highlight was being joined by so many in the closing legs it was like a snowball that just kept getting bigger and bigger. Thank you YTRRC.

Nick catching up on that sleep, be very proud Sir

Van in Hot Pursuit, the team are flying!

About to get underway!

Makes you proud to be a member of probably the best running club in the world!

Daylight!

This is a remarkable achievement, well done to all!

All done, hit the pitch, shame Yeovil FC managed a 2-0 home defeat!

And finally a picture of our 'international' Athlete taking part in the European Veterans Championships. Well done on your 5th place Jill.

Finally, good luck to all 106 Yeovil Town Road Running Club Runners in the Yeovil Half on Sunday, see you all there. Let hope I can keep in front of my daughter.....

See you soon, Half report on Sunday, send me any pictures you have.

All the best
