Tone Zoners show form across the south

Under clear skies, biggest achiever among the Tone Zoners was Donna Vincent, who took an impressive ten minutes off her Bognor 10k time from May, proving all her hard work and determination in training is paying off.

Paul Jarvis was the first club runner to finish, in just over 40 minutes. Jess Thomson continued her great running this year with a PB of 44.23 and also gaining a PB was Nathan Bilham, who joined the club this year.

This was only his third 10k but he ran 51.14. A personal best time went to Natalie King running her local race, a great time of 55.32. Gary Mitchell and Christopher Dummer also ran PBs.

At the New Forest showground in Brockenhurst was the marathon festival, allowing runners a choice of distances from 5k to a full marathon.

Four runners completed the longest run with Nina Baldwinson and Simon Bodsworth finishing the marathon course before just inside four hours and Neil Strudwick just outside. Jade Fish finished just under the 5hr mark. In the half marathon, Derek Natoli achieved an impressive PB of 1.57.51, sandwiched by Paul Westwood and Judith Bazeley and closely followed by Charlotte Seaton.

At Leatherhead, Tony Holcombe ran it the Bacchus marathon, running the undulating course very impressively to finish in 4.23.40 and third in his age category.

Paul Coe competed in his 22nd marathon of the year and 36th overall in Farnham. This was a really difficult marathon with 2,500ft of hills to get over – despite this Coe still completed the race in 4.25.27.

Carolyn Stapely, Ian Bayley and Gary Pidgeon competed in the gruelling Ironman 70.3 in Weymouth. This consists of a 1.2-mile sea swim, a 56-mile bike ride and a half marathon, a total distance of 70.3 miles.

All three completed all the disciplines with Pidgeon finishing in 5.57.53, Bayley 6.39.54 and Stapely 6.54.17. What a great achievement.
