Andrew & Sarah at the Carneval Chase Frome at the Compton Bassett September got off to a monstrous start for Frome Running Club on 1 September with The Beast. A 13-ish-mile trail run starting and finishing Corfe Castle Common. Ian Holmes (MV50) was the first Frome runner to finish in 02:04:01, closely followed by Emma Surridge (FV45), whose time of 02:04:09 earned her 3rd in age category. On the same day, closer to home, three more Frome runners lined up for the Carnival Chase 10K in Warminster. Andrew Smallbone (MV50) sped through the picturesque country lanes to finish in a time of 00:45:01, followed by Sarah Smallbone (FV50) in 00:52:59 and Kayleigh Philips (FSEN) in 01:02:31. The following weekend, there was more racing action with the Compton Bassett 5, race number six in the Wiltshire Road Race League. Frome fielded another strong team for this fast, flat five-mile race, earning valuable points for the club. Dan Gaisford (MV40) put in a stellar performance, finishing in 00:33
