Grantham Running Club race in the Humber Bridge half-marathon
Three members of Grantham Running Club lined up with more than 1,000 others to run the rearranged and well organised Humber Bridge half-marathon.
A fine, bright sunny morning saw the runners head out towards the bridge with a slight incline and a nice long downward section into Lincolnshire.
The scenic route took runners alongside the Humber and into the Lincolnshire countryside.
The notorious hill, known by all as Cardiac Hill, tested the resolve of most of the athletes as they headed back towards the bridge.
The nice decent outbound became a testing climb back into Hull in the last couple of miles.
First back for GRC was Clive George with a new 10 minute personal best of 1:37:59 and second in his age category. He was followed by Richard Urquhart in a good time of 2:08:49.
Also sneaking in under the radar was Jon Whittaker who thought by forgetting his kit that he would be able to go by unnoticed. Sadly his plan failed and he crossed the line in 2:05:05.
