ISTEAD & Ifield’s Lesley Irvine ran the Thanet quicksand 15-mile race last month.
This is a tough race run along the beach, the promenade or on the cliff top according to availability, from Margate to Ramsgate and back.
Irvine has since gone on to set three personal bests at the Sittingbourne 10-mile race, the Ashford 10k event and last weekend’s Maidstone half marathon.
At least this time the rain wasn’t there as it was at Sittingbourne, nor fog and cloud as at Ashford, just some high cloud.
Maidstone half marathon results: 13th -Dave Abery 1h24m08s; 46th -Steve Lelliot 1h29m09s; 119th - Alan Cowan 1h36m59s; 178th - Steven Ball 1h 40m52s; 217th - Nick Clayden 1h43m53s; 274th - Shaun Graves 1h47m20s; 382nd - Sue Holland 1h54m20s: 429th - Lesley Irvine 1h58m56s; 508th - Margaret Mary Cowan 2h06m50s; 548th - Debbie Tyler 2h14m51s; 549th - Mary Penfold 2h14m52s and Claire Ward 267th 2h18m02s.
