Team Valley manufacturer Zentia won the Business Challenge at the AJ Bell Great North 10K, to become the fastest team in Toon. The ceiling solutions company had a team of 10 runners in the event on Sunday July 2 and their four fastest runners - Gary Bailey, Ben Weetman, Lewis Cameron and Chris Gray - all managed to come in under 50 minutes, giving Team Zentia the fastest overall time.
Gemma Smith, from Zentia said: ‘‘Sunday’s run was a fantastic event for us, as soon as we finished, we were already talking about taking part next year - and now we will definitely be there to defend our title! As a team we were incredibly supportive of each other’s goals and really spurred each other on to achieve the times we wanted."
The winning team will be invited to a presentation of their plaque at Great Run later this month.
