Race results and round-up for NWRRC endurance runners and other events...



*John Dalzell (*above) completed the tough West Highland's Way race.

SOME GREAT RESULTS ON THE ROAD FROM NWRRC ATHLETES:


*Scotland: John Dalzell took part in the ‘Devil O the Highlands’ footrace. John was the 2nd Welsh finisher, and he was 146th out of 274 runners who eventually completed this tough 68k plus ultra-event in an amazing time of 9 hours 18 minutes and 30 seconds. 
After the race, John confirmed: “West Highland Way done in two shifts. Today’s effort was an easy 21-miles in the rain, the second 21 starting with the Devil’s staircase, which I’m sure was steeper and longer than last time, followed by the undulating military road. The legs weren’t impressed, but I kept smiling.”


*Steve Bozier (*above left) and Steve Poupart ran in the Coastal Marathon.


*Anglesey: Two NWRRC endurance athletes took part in the Cybi Coastal Marathon on Saturday, but both struggled with injuries. Steve Bozier battled with a hip problem after 15-miles but still finished well in 18th place in 4.29.25, whilst Steve Poupart suffered with cramp and struggled home in 94th place in 5.57.19.
