Reading Half, 25th March 2007
TOM Mellor was the lone Stubbington Green Runner who competed at the popular Asics Reading Half Marathon on Sunday.
Normally, this Berkshire race which finishes at the home of Reading Football Club's Madejski Stadium attracts a number of Stubbies who use the 13.1 mile race as part of their London Marathon preparations.
But with the attractions of the Eastleigh 10km and also the Cranleigh 15/21 race in Surrey on the same day, it was left to Tom to fly the flag.
Competing in the Vet 55 category Tom's chip time was 2hrs 13min 14sec for 7,559th in the field. This was the 25th year of the Reading Half Marathon.
