Members of Hambleton Athletics and Running Club (HARC) took part in the York Chocolate 10k earlier this month.
The sell out event was back for a fourth year, with two laps of the Knavesmire, overlooked by Terry’s Clock Tower, the grandstands of York Racecourse and Goddard’s.
Club officials say HARC had a good morning, with all runners rewarded with a goody bag full of chocolates, homemade cakes and a bespoke Willy Wonka inspired medal.
A couple of members achieved personal bests, giving them the opportunity to ring the ‘PB Bell’ and receive a special badge.
HARC chair Ruth Hancock participated in the event.
She said: “It was fabulous to see the sea of HARC blue around the course and so helpful to have a support crew cheering us on.
“Congratulations to everyone who took part; although flat, it was a challenging course due to the ever-changing weather and terrain.
“Great atmosphere, goody bag and medal bling… Chocolate 10K – we will be back!”
Anna added: “The team at See York Run York put a lot of thought into the event to make sure it was safe for competitors and spectators alike.”
HARC would like to say a massive thank you to event organisers SYRY for all their hard work creating such a fantastic event, not forgetting all the cake-baking behind the scenes.
