- Hinckley ½ Marathon Sunday 9th May - In Aid of Loros
Seven Academy members ran in Aid of Loros and for their own personal training development.
The weather conditions were ideal for this years Hinckley Half Marathon. For some of our members it was
their first time entering a Half Marathon event which made it quite challenging.
They all gave great performances, finishing in good times, this giving an unexpected announcement that Burbage TKD had won 1st place in the Corporate Teams, for the first 3 fastest times, Mr Hudson, Mr Baggott & Mr Higginson.
A big thank you to everyone involved raising over £600 for this excellent cause and to Maxene for supplying the T-Shirts.. Lyn Ryde for the photography and team support before and after the race.
