PRC runs against riots!

Parliamentary Running Club hit the streets of Clapham on 23rd August, running 5k to raise money for community cleanup projects following the riots that hit the area earlier in the month.

The event, which was organised in conjunction with local Police Community Support Officers, was attended by 169 runners from all over London, and covered by the Evening Standard.

PRC was represented by Nick, Martin, Sarah and Liz (pictured below, L-R), with Nick and Martin heading off in the "faster" group and Liz and Sarah modestly opting to start in the "less fast" group.

Special congratulations go to Nick, who impressed by storming home in the top 10. Speaking afterwards, Nick said, "I think I was in the top 10, or maybe 5 or something."

The event raised over £1300 in total.
