With the cross-country season now mostly behind them, athletes at St Albans Striders are turning their attention to more traditional road events - with fine runs and superb achievements among them.
Carrie Frazer fell in the latter category, running three track marathons in two days with a combined running time of well over 14 hours.
She has been raising money and awareness for CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably).
Ellie Morris meanwhile completed the 20-mile Grizzly Bear 2022 event in Devon while Matthew Cooper set a club record over the same distance, although on a slightly better surface, by clocking one hour 53 minutes 43 seconds at the Essex 20.
He finished 11th.
PBs were also on the agenda elsewhere with four at the Cambridge Half Marathon - Phillip Evans (1:14:08), Alan Castle (1:33:47), Andy Normile (1:42:58) and Emily Baker (1:43:32) the quartet to do so.
Jake Butterfield managed one at the Berkhamsted Half too, clocking 1:19:59, while Steve Scorer not only set a PB of 1:29:32 at the Wimbledon Half, he also finished 18th overall.
