The Harriers had a successful time at the Wingham Fun Runs, winning a total of five prizes. In the 10K event, Sarah May, on her club debut, was 2nd with a time of 43:04 - an excellent performance in humid conditions and on a testing course. Dave Smith won the Vet 50 category and Roy Palmer was unluckily just outside the prizes, being first Harrier home whilst coming in 4th place. Fine club debuts were made by Carol Reid and Karen Leyshon, the latter running her first ever 10K.
In the 5.5K, fifteen year old Jack Parnell took 2nd prize behind a course-record breaking run by the winner. Here Andrew Langston was the unlucky one in coming 4th.
William Walsh and Rafi Stone were first and second in the junior fun run, with Kayley Dowell, Scott Hinsley (who only turned 3 the day before!) and Mark & Adam Gooderson also being amongst the others running.
