Sandra Ogun
Head coach, endurance
Twenty years of marathon coaching and a spreadsheet for everything. Sets the winter blocks that quietly turn 25 minute 5k runners into 21 minute ones.
Home / Records
Every record below hangs on the pavilion wall in Dave's best laminating. They stand until somebody at a club race takes them down, and half the fun of a Tuesday is watching someone decide to try.

Records are claimed from any licensed race or, for the Wessenden Round, a witnessed club attempt. Age category records live in the pavilion because the table got too big for the internet.
