May Results

Colder than most previous handicap races in May at 12C and overcast, but dry and firmer ground than last month. The record number of participants possibly caused some to start too fast and then the queues at the stiles provided a welcome breather (says he with feeling!). Huge thanks to Rob P, Tony B, and Katy for coping well with some very close finishing groups (which is the point of a handicap race, I suppose). Our recruitment sergeant, Ian, did a fantastic job in cajoling so many first-timers to try this really quite hard 3 mile cross country course. As we have always said for the women (and the elderly men) if you can complete this one, you can look forward to competing in the North Wales League in the autumn and winter – especially as you will improve if continuing to do this one over the next few months. Congratulations to Caz, who underestimated her ability by just a bit – and will get a more realistic start-time for June. Big improvements by Mari J and Tracey (who is getting just a tad unpredictable, I have to say), another strong run by octogenarian Ron, confirming that he always goes well in dryer conditions, and an astonishingly good run from Menai (again). Mari W stayed ahead of Tracey and was faster than in-form Elen – which bodes very well for a Women’s team including a resurgent Victoria and a flying Mel. Welcome to everyone else on their maiden voyages and hope to see you on the Tuesday and/or Thursday training nights.
