Dee Runners

11/05/2026

Great weekend of running!

On Friday we had Run the Runways, a great race held by Scrabo Striders Running club with a huge number of 17 members taking part. So many Dee Runners got amazing times with PB’s flying about everywhere! Great night out and greatly appreciated the lovely support team down to cheer on our runners too. It was a cracking huge well deserved beautiful medal to add to the collection.  “It’s big enough to use as a coaster” ( Jo Gillam)
