EDIT: to add RosesAreRed777 whi is running York 10k on Sunday. Her second event, so another growing medal collection. Good luck and enjoy!!!

It may be August, it may be hot, but our racers still need our support!

Grab your pom poms folks. We need to don our sunnies, our hats, our sunscreen and our water bottles. There is work to be done!

At the moment we know of just one fabulous VRB heading for a start line this weekend, so let's get our pompoms waving and create a cooling, cheering breeze and wave of support for:

drl212 who will be running the Clapham Common 5k on Sunday. Two flat laps of Clapham Common, with a 'testing' final 75m, will be a challenge if the forecast temperatures prevail, so be sure to hydrate well dr212 then go out and smash it! That brand new medal looks to be an awesome one to add to your collection! Bon courage, enjoy!!!
