This weekend i ran the inaugural Spitfire Scramble in Hornchurch Country
Park
The Spitfire Scramble is a 24 hour multi lap endurance race. I ran in a
team of 6 (inc Harrier Brian Day) and running began at 12 noon Saturday
ending at 12 noon Sunday. Each lap was 5.8 miles and we managed a
respectable 26 laps in the time allowed. Our team was mixed ability with
some members never having run more than 10k in the past so it was a
weekend of great personal results. I managed 5 laps on no sleep and lots
of mossie bites!
Highly recommended as a team event and much like Thunder Run but on a much
smaller scale. Nice medal and t shirt too!
