Calne 10K at Bowood


With Lara, Tim & Sonya, we ran the Calne 10K around the grounds of Bowood House. Lovely day with sunny spells, just enough nip in the air to keep us cool whilst running. It's technically a multi-terrain (hilly in parts, some would say) "fun run", which I think means isn't an officially measured course. My Garmin later showed 5.8 miles.

Lara & Tim running the Brighton Marathon next weekend, so was an ideal taper session for them.

Calne 10K Event Details

Started near the back of the pack with Lara, Tim & Sonns, broke away, but only caught up with Nichola, the tail Calne runner at practically the end. So not a quick run compared to the other runners in our club - ho-hum! In 2008 when I last ran this race, finished a min quicker.

Me 47 mins.
Lara, Tim & Sonya 69 mins.

222 finishers.

Lunch, seriously massive pork roast at The Fox in Broughton Gifford.
