Valley to Village
Race Date: 27 April 2025
Kay Grenfell returned to home ground for the Valley to Village 10 mile trail race, described as 'A superb trail route from the scenic College Valley, finishing at the bustling village of Wooler. The route follows the public FP which is technical, undulating and runs parallel with the College Burn for two miles along the College valley floor. The route then joins the St Cuthberts Way trail back to Wooler.' Sounds lovely.
From Kay: It was an old school style race with a stopwatch timer, the photographer slept in and the finish was at a sign by the community centre. This added character to the great route, views, a friendly atmosphere and lovely homemade soup at the finish.
I finished in approx 1hr 40 in 21st place and 4th female and was v happy with that from a field of approx 50.
Kay's official time was 1.39.50.
