Why run
with Knavesmire? |
St Wilfred’s Muddy Boots 10k (well 10.5k) - 07/02/10 Seven Harriers took on the muddy fields around Ripon on Sunday 7th Feb and with some success. Robyn
Oldham took first place in the female race in 41.37, (40 sec ahead of her
closest rival). In the men’s race Phil Elliott-Dick chased hard to come in
second place (36:00) behind Sunderland Harriers Brian Rushworth, who took
victory in a time of 35:14. It was good to see Andy Neale (49:24) out and
getting his shoes dirty and other harriers running included Martin Smith
(43:36), Peter Welsh (43:44), Patricia Gill (55:04) and Helen Farrell (62:09).
York Knavesmire Harriers was represented by a small group of runners at the Dewsbury 10km, a fast out and back course that runs from Dewsbury town centre through Batley and Birstall. Darren Hendley was the first Harrier to cross the finish line (35.16) followed by Ian Anderson (36.27), David Darton (40.37), Colin Lea (42.17), London marathon bound Nick Lawrence (46.08), Andy Smith (51.03) and Mark Raven (51.14). A first York based finisher was Mike Raynes, running back to form in 34.56 The fast nature of the course always ensures a high quality field. This year, Mark Buckingham from Holmfirth took the mens title in a sub 30 mins clocking (29.55) closely followed by the 2009 winner Matthew Bowser from Lincoln Wellington AC (29.57). The women's race was won by the recently crowned Northern Cross Country Champion Hattie Dean from Hallamshire Harriers AC (33.28), followed by Susan Partridge from Leeds (33.42).
