Grantham Running Club stage their presentation night
Nearly 90 members attended Grantham Running Club's annual presentation evening at the Masonic Hall at Faraday House.
The hugely popular event recognises the achievements of the members over the previous year with silverware awarded for some amazing performances.
The evening also offered an opportunity to look back at some of the best and funniest moments of 2024 with various slideshows and alternative awards.
The awards part of the evening began with the presentation of the club standards which are awarded for people's best age graded performance in a qualifying road race and range from Tin up to Platinum standard.
Next came the individual trophies for various categories.
Big winners of the night included Gavin Potter, Holly Durham and Catherine Payne who won in multiple categories and whose tables were heaving with silverware at the end of the night.
The evening certainly had the feelgood factor with members enthusiastically celebrating one another's accomplishments and socialising together, embodying the true spirit of Grantham Running Club.
