Fast times for club trio at Mid-Cheshire 5k race.

Report by Don Hale.

 

Three Road Runners competed in the Mid-Cheshire 5k road race last Friday night which proved to be another ultra-fast event for a host of top club and elite athletes.

Run over a course known for its speedy times and personal best results, the race attracted 848 finishers for this popular summer challenge. Just thirty-seconds eventually separated the first ten finishers, and incredibly, some twenty-eight athletes all dipped under fifteen-minutes!

Martin Green was the first NWRRC man home in 124th place in a superb time of 16 minutes and 10 seconds, and yet he was 7th in his MV45 age cat. Will Williams was delighted with his time of 17.39 in 289th place, with Harry Driscoll 364th following another excellent run in 18.52.

The overall race was won by Adam Craig in just 14.09, with Kurt Taylor (Bristol & West AC) 2nd in 14.15, and Ben Brown (Southampton AC) 3rd in 14.18.
