Report by Don Hale. https://donhaleblog.blogspot.com www.welshmastersathletics.co.uk In stark contrast to last week’s icy 5k course at Conwy parkrun, this time some 229 starters faced a cold blustery wind, but the event welcomed a large contingent from Porth Eirias Runners, and numerous ‘Couch to 5k’ participants. North Wales Road Runners entered twelve members with Josh Keogh being the first man home overall on an unusually dry but challenging course with a fast time of 17 minutes and 33 seconds. The club also celebrated four first placed age cat victories, four second, and two third placings. Josh also won his SM30 age cat, and he was more than a minute ahead of the second placed finishers and debutants, Cameron Morris in 18.42, and Ed Slaughter third in 18.43. Cameron won his SM20 cat, and Ed additionally won his SM18 age cat.
