Despite missing a few regulars 31 runners competed in the Club Handicap, 5 of whom were ‘first timers’. We looked as if we might be in trouble recording the finish with only three of us on duty but the cavalry arrived in the shape of Simon Norman on his bike and he took up the important role of road disc man.
Jamie Fuentes was first home in a PB time of 22:45 ahead of ‘first timer’ Richard Kirk, with the still improving James Thurston 3rd, just 21 secs behind Jamie, and 1 sec ahead of Caroline Dawson. Both ran PBs. Daniel Harris’s PB time of 16:33 puts him to 6th= with Ross Muir in the all time list.
There were 10 PBs in total, but performance of the evening must surely go to Steve Watkins, whose 7th place time of 17:26 exactly equalled his PB set 12 years ago in May 2000.
My thanks to Neil Sunderland and Pete Tozer for their help on the night. I attach the result.
