Buxton Half Marathon took place on 25th May this year.  The weather was challenging, but 248 runners took it on.  Emma Gaffney reports;

“Three LRC members, David Millward, Ian Robinson, and myself, ran the Buxton Half Marathon on Sunday.  Martin had already warned us of the heart-straining ascent, with 3 miles of continuous climbing from the gun, but all worth it when rewarded with stunning views of the Peaks at the top.  Starting/finishing at the Pavillion Gardens in Buxton, this is one of the best races I’ve been to, and cost just £10!”
