—Spine Race.
Knavesmire’s Ultra Marathon running legend has completed the 268 mile Winter Spine Race, knocking almost 2 days off his time from his first attempt last year, some PB!
Hem was 20th with a time of 108 hours 46 minutes, just over 50% of participants did not complete the course and the race was won by Kim Collinson in under 83 hours.
Hem said via FB :
The epic Winter adventure follows the Pennine Way from Edale near Sheffield all the way North To Kirk Yelthom near the Scottish Border in Northumberland.
Hem had to battle freezing temperatures, snow, ice and the quagmires created as these melted
Two days after this amazing feat of endurance Hem took it easy doing York parkrun.
