The annual Stevenage Half-Marathon took place on Sunday morning which saw twelve Striders in action, a record turnout for the event. The club had two prize winners and a debut for Danik doing this distance with a buggy. First off, the awards (as the Stevenage Half Marathon is also the course for the Hertfordshire county half-marathon championship race), Vicky McIver came third in her age category (VF45) and gained a personal best time and a course PB in the process whilst Esperanza Castro also finished third in her age category (VF55).

The Stevenage Half Marathon, organised by Fairlands Valley Spartans, was a sell out. 83 Spartans helped organise the event, 43 Spartans ran the 13.1 miles and altogether 405 completed the race.
