Wiltshire’s leading Estate Agents, Strakers, were delighted to support Corsham Running Club with their annual 10km run through the historic town and surrounding countryside.  Bath Rugby’s first team players, Carl Fearns and Alafoti Faosiliva, were on hand to sign autographs and chat to anyone wanting to know a little more about Bath’s highly successful season and following a brief interview were then in position to drop the flag and start the race!

Strakers had a team of four runners representing them, two of whom were taking part in their first ever event, and whilst not at the sharp end of the race all four posted very creditable times.  Charlie Doel, Associate Director and Auctioneer commented  “that was harder than I expected, but it was great to take part in such an brilliant event and help raise funds for local charities.  We hope to have more of the team taking part next year as many of them were unable to this time as they were working throughout the weekend at our Open Doors event”

Melissa Henry, Area Sales Director of rightmove, who lives in nearby Box said  “I was thrilled to be asked to represent Strakers on Sunday, and managed to set my personal best time of 51.16 on the day”

With 920 runners streaming through the finish line collecting their medals the day ended with a prize giving.  The overall winner being Simon Nott, captain of Calne Running Club who lead the way from start to finish, unchallenged and stretching out a very commanding lead to finish in 32.52 and in doing so regaining his county title.
