What would Christmas be without traditions? Once again one of Aylesbury’s favourites is the Boxing Day 5k race through the streets of the town, organised by Vale of Aylesbury Athletic Club.
The Club arranged for an earlier race for younger runners which measured approximately 800m starting at the Clock Tower in the town’s Market Square at 9.25 am. The 2 lap race was for children aged 11 and under, and for little ones, parents could also take part.
The main event for those aged 12 and over set off from Market Square at 9.45 am on a measured 5k course around the town. The Athletic Club is very grateful to Up & Running, Oxford who provided the prizes. The course was marshalled by Vale’s great volunteers.
A MASSIVE thank you to those who helped out before, during and after the races.
Last years winner Phillip Sewell from Aldershot, Farnham and district registered and was in great form, back to defend his 2018 title.
So without further delay, the results are in…….
WELL DONE to Phillip Sewell, 1st place again.
