Fun Run

Just about anyone who could take part in this Fun Run did.  Suffolk had a very good turnout, and we all crossed the finish line, each receiving a certificate and medal.

The course was flat with some small inclines and long grass.  It was quite wet in some places from all of the rain but still ok to run on.  The distance was 2.7 miles.

The race started with the serious runners at the front.  We all ran from the start line, with the faster runners disappearing into the distance.  Many of us were walking and then running in order to keep going.  Knowing we had 35 minutes to complete the Fun Run, put us under pressure to run more than we had originally planned.

As we all began to cross the finishing line at different intervals, the cheering spectators made us want to run until you had crossed the line although walking was all we really wanted to do. 

We all achieved what we had set out to do and that was to have fun.
 

Tug of War

Having won the regional Tug of War competition on numerous occasions in the past, the Suffolk Centre team have a reputation to keep. As you can see they were on top form.

The Tug of War pulled in the crowds again and the sun actually shone for a while.  Six teams took part in a Round Robin competition.  The Suffolk Centre team coached by John Taylor were in good spirits to give it a good go.  They took two ends off the Mid Anglia Centre, and overall came fourth.  Well done to all.

Men's Volleyball

The men had been practicing their skills at the Trimley and Hintlesham rallies, so they gave their best for the Suffolk Centre.
