Race Results w/e 27th May

Last week saw some incredible sporting performances. Chris Froome took the Giro with an incredible 80km solo effort, Fulham Football Club returned to the premier league, England were comprehensively outplayed at Lord’s to be beaten in the first Test (the BBC’s words, not mine), and Ful-on Tri continued to show dominance in not one, not two, but three sports.

First up last week, Tom Scott and Brian Canty ran the Chase the Sun running races in Hyde Park. Tom Scott took on the 10km, posting a new PB and taking the win overall, while Brian Canty ran the 5km. Well done guys!
