WRC held the final race last night of its annual intra club 5k series.

Across 4 races, members race the challenging John Roberts route, finishing at The Angel pub, Kelvedon. We’re grateful to The Angel and local community each year as well as all our volunteers.

Here are a few pictures of last night’s final race. Well done to all.

It’s been a terrific week of racing for WRC with the JR5k on Thursday, followed by the GB5 on Friday night and Ekiden and Felstead on Sunday. Here are some of our highlights.

A brilliant day for Witham at The Halstead and Essex Marathon. The men’s team came away with a podium finish, our marathoners flew the colours across the course, and our volunteers kept the field going on the water stations. Congratulations and thank you to everyone who wore the black and gold today. 🖤💛
