Paul Barrow tops the list for pure joy and excitement having run the 5 miles with a significant PB and others with something to CRO about include Karen Higuera whose handicap score of 140.0% suggests she is, at last, back and showing us what she is capable of when both fit and focused on the distance in hand. Gary Wood’s 113 .33 % also tell us he is back to form post marathon.
Ian Barrett ran the fastest 5 miles in 31.47 but this week Brian Harris (33.37) managed to push treadmill Jo (with 34.29) into 3rd place. Next, the battle between Tim Ingham and Kate Sackett continues – they were separated by 45 seconds for the last 5 mile event, 10 seconds for last week’s 5k and this week Kate (with 36.59) managed to get within 4 seconds of Tim’s 36.55. Watch out Tim! Dorian Matts was another 11 seconds behind with Karen Higuera chasing.
After Karen and Gary, the handicapped list again shines a light on the continued improvement of Rachel Barrow, Rachel Ranger and Louise Abbott. Ruth Fulford is also definitely going in the right direction. Finally with no Chudleys this week Brian Harris joins the more senior ladies at the top of the age graded list and great to see Rupert Chesmore is back running too.
Next week CRO runners have a choice of either 10km (as we should have been running the Berkley 10k next weekend) or 1 mile or you can, of course run both. As ever, anyone with any link to Cirencester is welcome to send their times for these distances in to cirenacresults@gmail.com before 3 pm Sunday 10th May. Just the time is enough, no need for downloads from Strava – if you choose to cheat - it is you who have to live with your conscience.
In case you missed it – future plans are as follows
Week beginning 4th May 10km and 1 mile (would have been the week of Berkley 10 km)
11th May 1 mile including a team event
18th May 5 km
25th May 5 miles and 2 km
Also please note if you want to take part in the 1 mile team event in the week beginning May 11th – please could you tell Martin when you send in the your results at the end of this week and/or if you were in a team last time but want to sit this one out please also tell Martin. He needs to create the teams and see if he can come up with as fine a balance as he did last time – new comers VERY welcome.

HANDICAP RACE
To work out the handicap score, your original 5 mile run during the week ending the 12th April has been used. Your new time divided by your original time has produced a percentage. Any percentage higher than 100, means you have run quicker this week. For people whom this run is their first 5 mile performance, I have simply given them 100.
