Tideswell Wakes Inter-Inns 5k 19 June 2023

Bob Foreman reports:

A hot and humid evening for this years event. The Inter Inns is a 5K Road Race starting outside The Star in Tideswell and heading uphill  to The Red Lion in Litton before  returning by the same route to Tideswell and finishing outside the Horse and Jockey.

A great atmosphere in the village for the 109 starters which included 16 MAC runners of which  8 were juniors. Fantastic to see the youngsters.

The race winner was Charles Bell of North Derbyshire RC in a very swift 16.33. and the first lady was Connie Jenneson of Buxton, 15th o/a in 19.46. MAC runners were;

7th      William Croft                       18.15               1st 12/14
14th   Casper Reynolds                 19.45
16th    Bob Foreman                      20.10               1st M60

A great evening out but I noticed an age difference of over half a century between MAC runners. My goodness I felt old but as refreshments were taken outside the Horse and Jockey my pint of Brother Rabbit  Golden Ale,4% from Thornbridge Brewery made me feel much better.
