It’s been a quiet weekend for races, as many people turn their attention to binge-watching festive films with a tub of Celebrations and mince pies…

But not everyone!... At the Stevenage Winter Half Marathon, Patrick Hayes continued his strong year by taking third place in 1:17:35.

Tom Croft and Emily Hickey-Baird were 1st Male and 1st Female at the Flamstead Christmas 5k, taking home great festive trophies.

Further afield, Johanna Houlahan took the opportunity for some winter sun, at the Malaga Marathon, finishing her 52nd attempt at that distance with a great 4:19:05.

We hope there is time for a well-earned rest for all, before we hit 2026.
