WINTER TIME TRIAL MARCH 2016

We had 16 brave runners on the last winter time trial of this season, on a cold but dry night. A few other runners decided to do their own thing too. Helping ensure the runners got off on the correct time and were correctly recorded over the finish line were Alice Murray Gourlay, James Woodman and James Manthorp. As usual the bulk of the work was left to the only female! They were 3 new faces to this years series, Justin Heath, Ewan Malone and Matt Kasparek. First runner over the line with the words of “It’s the first time I have won anything” was Chris Hunt with a run time of 24.49. Second was Matt Kasparek 24.04, third Catherine Barrett 23.52 and fourth towards the front end for a change Patrick Nesden 30.33. Bringing up the rear on this occasion was Justin Heath – a recent new member in 26.24 and Sean Scanlon (not a member – yet!!) in 24.18 who must have drawn the short straw with the handicapping and setting off with Chris Glover and Ryan Owens. Fastest female was Louise O Brien with 23.17 and fastest male Paul Miller with 19.39 and overtaking 9 runners. Winners of the best 4 results from the 6 races will be announced later

Although this was the last of the winter time trials, if we have sufficient interest in the lighter nights there is a 3.1 mile section of the canal from Kirkstall to Rodley that we can use as an outbound stretch, and either jogging back another way – or if keen enough, for a negative split return? Runners can probably do their own timings on a rough handicap basis, and those out for a “stroll” can just start with whoever they want and act as pacers?
