The STAC championship returns, but not like any race before! The St. Aidan’s 10k was a virtual race this year with runners able to do the course any time between 18-31st July.
35 STAC’s took and there were many fantastic performances. Shane Grace was 3rd overall and 1st in his age category; Chris Gill was 1st in his age category whilst Dan Ayres, Roslyn Birch, Kelly Palmer, Pauline Hardman and Geoff Hardman were all in the top 5 of their age categories.
