OVER 30 members of Harlow Running and Tri Club conquered marathons last weekend with members running in the London, Manchester and Shakespeare marathons.

Harlow Running and Tri Club had an amazing turnout for the London and Manchester marathon over the weekend with 30 members completing London, 3 completing Manchester and 1 completing Shakespeare.

They all showed real grit and determination across the cold winter months to complete their training and tick all those long runs off. This meant the heat on the day put them all to the test as it topped 22.2C in London, but they did it!

They achieved some incredible results too:
