Tim in full flow
Alice showing great determination in this tough race
Tim Budd and Alasdair Cowell ran at the BREIDDEN HILLS RACE, the final counter in the WFRA COTSWOLD OUTDOORS NORTH WALES SERIES. Tim finished 10th in this race albeit with a sprained ankle, 2nd overall in this series and in the top 10 of the INOV8 WFRA OPEN WELSH CHAMPIONSHIPS. With Alasdair also in the top 10 in the North Wales series and in the V40 top 10 in the Open Welsh, these have been good series of races for the two of them flying the Glossopdale flag in deepest Wales.
