Other Races - Frampton 10k Race Report
Knocking another half minute off her personal best 10K time, Steph Lane of Bourton Roadrunners stormed through the finish at Frampton, leaving her worthy opponents in her wake as she raced to Victory in a time of 37:24.
Her performance was matched by Dennis Walmsley, who defies age to outrun most of his opponents, finishing just 6 seconds behind the winner with a second in 33:25. Mike Smith proved he is back on track with a fine run for 6th place in 33:52, just 3 seconds ahead of Alistair Lockey 33:55.
Andy Chapple, who had not been well leading up to the race, was delighted to achieve a personal best of 37:18, while Tony Goodwill had an excellent race after competing in the Pilot 10M just 2 days before, with a 10K time of 39:28. Ian Shoemark almost didn't make the start because of a commitment to provide 90 portions of fish and chips, but with adrenalin rushing, he too achieved a PB of 39:32.
Brittany Teague had an excellent race, finishing strongly in 6th lady position in 40:35.
Ali Lane made up the team, 42:52 and 1st Vet 50, making it equal 1st place points with Les Croupier.
