Strider takes out Toowoomba Marathon
October 20, 2008
A group of 9 Striders travelled up to Toowoomba on the weekend to compete in the various distances on offer.
In tough conditions, Julie Turner took out silver in the Women’s 10km, with Wendy Clark just missing out on a podium finish.
Stan and Mary took on the Marathon, which took in 4 loops of the course based around the Uni.
Stan held on in the lead group and then moved to the front at 15km.
He shared the lead with another runner until the 33km mark when he moved
out far in front to eventually finish well ahead of second for his first ever marathon win.
