While the rest of us were hunkering down to avoid Storm Franklin, Gordonian Runner Mark Bissett 8077 (1982) was running The Brecon to Cardiff Ultra Marathon 2022. Mark, pictured on the left, said that his Gordon’s Odd Ball Beanie Hat was essential in keeping him warm and focused whilst Storm Franklin blasted them from start to finish with freezing gales, torrential rain, sleet and hail. ‘This was some of the worst racing conditions I have experienced’ said Mark who completed the 43 miles – in an impressive 8hrs 25 mins. Well Done Mark!
We are thrilled to share the news that Old Gordonian FC football team, ‘The Camels’, have signed a renewed Sponsorship deal with Boz’s Fruit and Veg in Woking. We would like to thank them for their continued support. The boys designed a new Home kit, pictured below, in time for next season where they will continue to compete in The Aldershot and Camberley Sunday League.
The Gordonian Runners continue to impress with their race achievements this year.
