North Wales Cross country league race1: Colwyn Bay

The start of the North Wales league races, saw the members of Telford go to the sea side with the sun shinning. Colwyn Bay was the venue for a glorious undulating race which saw a double yet again with victories in the mens and womens races.

Claire Martin took the field on early and found there was no takers to the early pace, with only the juniors to keep her company, Amanda Davies ran a really strong race moving through the field to a very good 5th, once again Cheryl and Julliet pushed each other all the way round finishing 31st and 32nd and Sarah Mackness coming back to cross country came 57th. Well done to all, will update on team position when the results come in.

The mens race was once again a one runner race with Chris Davies going out hard and establishing a lead which never looked in doubt, Mark Dalkins running another superb race finishing 2nd, Greg Wilson coming back to his favourite course to finish 9th, Rob Hughes although starting the race chatting his way round the first few meters of the race came through to a impressive 14th, Martin Turnock came in 29th, Kevin Fisher 32nd, Paul Williams 53rd, Rick Hailey 55th, Dave Talbot 75th, Jamie Davies 83rd, Malcolm Dawes 111th and Paul Sanderson 138th.

Thank you to all that travelled and to the ladies for the lovely cake very nice.

The next race in the north wales league is up at Bangor on the 30th of october.
