No sooner do I include, in my preview, the Men and Ladies top10 Handicap Times when along comes Jack Holland to better his PB by just under a minute and become the sixth fastest of all time.
Jack was one of nine runners who ran PBs in a rather disappointing field of 27 starters that included 5 first timers. There were satisfying SBs for Peter Grecian and Neil Sunderland by 56 and 55 secs. respectively.
Race winner Lizzie Ruth Wilson was also previewed as getting back to her pre-Christmas form and so it proved. Her time of 30:00 was only 1 sec. off her SB set in August 2010. First timer Jane Calderbank was fastest lady in 21:40
