Carn Runners made a strong start to the racing year at the Exeter First Chance 10K, with brilliant performances across the board and some very proud moments along the way.
Known for being a fast and flat course, this early-season race is ideal for testing winter training — and our runners certainly did just that.
Personal Best Performances
A huge well done to Elena, Zoe and James, who all came away with brand new PBs 👏🔥
Chasing a personal best at any time of year is impressive, but doing it in the first big race of the season shows the hard work that’s been going on behind the scenes over the winter months.
A First Race in Carn Colours
It was also a special day for Elena, as this was her very first race wearing Carn colours — something she was incredibly proud of 💙💛
There’s always something special about pulling on the club vest for the first time. Representing the club, lining up together, and feeling that shared support makes race day even more memorable.
To combine that with a PB? That’s a brilliant way to start your Carn racing journey.
A Fast Start to the Year
The Exeter First Chance 10K is a great benchmark race. It gives runners a chance to see where their fitness is at and build confidence heading into the rest of the season.
With three PBs and strong performances across the board, it’s safe to say Carn Runners have started the year in fine form.
Massive congratulations again to Elena, Zoe and James — we’re looking forward to seeing what the rest of the season brings 💙💛
