Norwich Union Trowse 10k

Easter Sunday - 23rd March 2008.

 

Snow is pretty.

Falling snow is very pretty.

Some pretty weather conditions aren't necessarily conducive to running events, but the 2008 Norwich Union Trowse 10k went ahead.  304 runners completed the race with 17 of those being Tri-Anglia members with lots more members in attendance amongst the 43 marshalls.

As 10k courses go, this is a tough one.  You basically run up and round the back of the ski-club hill twice.  Part of the course is off-road, which is normally firm going, but in wet snowy conditions was particularly slippery.  It didn't seem to stop the winner Adam Thomas getting round in 32:56.  Fastest Tri-Anglia member of the day was Mark Clues.

No post race awards ceremony as it was deemed too cold and most people were wanting to get home to the warm as quickly as possible.
