A new era as five Belles race at Addington

Surrey Walking Club 4 miles, Addington, 6 October 2012 

We're used to seeing Maureen Noel well up in the race walking fields but she had her heels clipped at Addington by four other Belles.  Maureen (who won the National 50k Championship two weeks ago) was 10th in the male/female field with Rebecca Crossan 12th, Sabina Brown 13th, Tabi Gillan 16th and Laura McLelland 21st. It was only Tabi's 3rd ever race while Rebecca, Sabina and Laura had never raced before.
