A good run by Emma Law saw her finish second in the half marathon and first F40. John Boothman finished third M60. He should have been second M60, but he forgot that it was a race and held a gate open for a chasing M60 who went on to finish in front of him. He needs a leaf out of the Ian Holmes racing manual. If you have to open a gate, remember to close it behind you and if that is in the face of a chasing runner, smile at him, just to let him know that there is no malicious intent.
In the 10K race, Nicola McNamara had a good run to finish 12th in the ladies' race and 2nd F40.
