Good luck to our Ultra tastic trio Colin, Andy and Mike, who are running 111 Miles in the Warwickshire Ring Canal Race today.

The event has live tracking if you too want to track their progress: https://track.trail.live/event/wrcr

The what’s it all about Alfie info bit from the organisers: The Warwickshire Ring Canal Race is a circular route comprised of sections of the Coventry; Birmingham & Fazeley; Grand Union; and Oxford Canal towpaths. Starting and finishing at Coventry Basin, the anti-clockwise circuit covers approximately 111 canal miles.

This race is a special one-off for 2022 and a stand-alone event.

The varied, easy-to-follow, course takes in rural, urban, and industrial areas. Competitors will enjoy an unusual view of “Spaghetti Junction”, descend the “Stairway to Heaven”, round the “Cape of Good Hope”, and pass no less than four “Boat Inns” during their endeavours.

As with the other events there are no entry qualifications, but a schedule to fit a 33 hour overall time limit is required.

The Kenilworth Half Marathon route is measured, re

The Kenilworth Half Marathon route is measured, ready and waiting for you!

Using a Jones Counter, Terry cycled the course, marking the miles for us, going through the castle from the town centre and into the surrounding countryside.

It was a busy weekend full of running with lots of highlights for Kenilworth Runners. A Birthday park run for Stef at leamington; over 100 of us taking in part in the @twocastlesrun, which finishes in grounds of Kenilworth castle - a feature in our half marathon on the 11th September.

Further afield Sam ran in the British Sprint Orienteering relays in Leeds; K.R.’s took part in the Offa Dyke 15 which Emma chose as her longest run to date with 2500ft of height gain packed into it to tackle - Welldone.

Others raced horses in the 20 miler Man versus Horse in wales and took on the challenging mixed terrain with its 3500ft of height. Congratulations to Jane who was 2nd in her age group and David who was 4th in his age group as well as all the other K.R.’s.

A veritable feast of running.

Sunday was the Hilly Hundred with 5 Kenilworth Runners Teams taking part in the 100 mile, 10 leg relay with 4816ft of height gain. A Great Team event that we love being a part of and a fabulous win for the mens team.

Meanwhile closer to home Club runs explored the local trails through the fields; Rachel went further afield to Copenhagen Marathon and Jenny ran her first Cani cross with Luna.

"As the dust settles on the Two Castles, a quick look back to May.

May means the Hilly 100 and both of our Runners of the Month played key roles that day.

First up was James Price, still new to the club and straight into our A team. Taking the baton with quite a deficit on Stratford, James ran a storming leg to bring us right back into contention. The rest, as they say, is history as we went on to win the race, is it 11 out of the last 12 races? James has quickly made himself a key member of the team.

Nicky Johnston came to the rescue of our Ladies A team after a late withdrawal left us short of a runner. Nicky stepped up and also ran a great leg after also finishing first lady at our MayDay 10K

Great running by two relatively new club members 👍"
