Well Done at Brampton!

Having just looked at the results from the Brampton to Carlisle Road Race, the club had 13 finishers of whom four were women. Team placings were Senior Men seventeenth out of 29 clubs, Veteran men 10th out of 24 (counting runners were John Foley who was 102nd in 58:02, Bobby Young 107th in 58:28 and Bobby Rossborough 114th in 58:47), Ladies 6th out of 14 teams and the Lady Vets third out of eleven clubs (counting runners were Marina McCallum 148th in 60:36, Aileen Scott 199th in 63:00 and Kath Scott 204th in 63:14.) It was a pity that the fourth Lady - Yvonne Green - didn't collect a medal with her 70:04 timing since she was the only other woman who had travelled but I'm sure that she would have enjoyed it and it would be interesting to note how the time compares with her pb. She was ahead of four of the men - Watson Jones in 70:36, Alexander McDonald in 73:59, Chris Ryan in 76:50 and Colin Gray in 87:57. The other men running were Hugh Watson who was 232nd in 64:32 and David Mitchell in 293rd with a time of 68:11. Well done to all of them - it's good to see these numbers prepared to go so far for a good race.
