North Wales Road Runners entered five athletes in the 10k event with another two members in the half-marathon. Despite this challenging weather, the club still celebrated two podium placings in their respective age categories in the shorter race, and  Helen Hannam  snatched 3rd spot in her age cat in the half-marathon. *Helen Hannam gained a podium place in her age cat in the half-marathon. Steve Roberts  performed well again to finish 27th in the 10k run, and he was also 2nd in his VM55-59 age cat in 44 minutes
