​This week, ShUOC has been up and about training and racing!

On Thursday, we teamed up with our sponsors at Up & Running Sheffield for a ShUOC × Altra Try-on run! Thank you to the team at Up & Running, the club had a brilliant time trying out the shoes and trying not to fall in the bogs of Redmires! 

On Saturday, a large group of ShUOCers attended Endcliffe Park Parkrun, as well as others who visited other parkruns in Sheffield. Well done to Abbie Walker on a smashing overall 5km PB!! 

On Sunday, some members orienteered in the Forest of Dean in the compass sport Cup, representing their home clubs. Will Lake and his SBOC team lead the way in the Trophy. Chloe Potter and Ben Stevens raced for local SYO club, who were 1st in the Cup, and Joseph Goodwin raced for WCOC who placed 7th!! 

And in the Peaks, Henry Webb took part in the Roaches Fell race and placed 2nd, despite dealing with a fall that removed most of his chin! 

Finally, a massive congratulations to Jessica Harrison, who completed her first ever marathon in the Gower!!!! A great achievement, well done!!!!
