Club Records

Here are the Wye Valley Club records that have been compiled so far. Thanks to those runners who’ve given their times. There are still quite a few gaps to fill, especially for the ladies and vets, so get looking! Quite a few times were taken from the UKA / Athletics Weekly ’Power of 10′ site – hope no-one minds. If you’d like to submit times, please contact Stuart on herefordstu@googlemail.com
