HRRL Race 10: Netley 10k Write-up and Results
A bright morning greeted a WADAC contingent of 12 gents and 9 ladies (meaning that we had full A, B and C teams - but only just). The clouds soon cleared, allowing a sunny race of three loops in and out of the tree-cover in the country park.
nSusy Perry was our first lady to finish in an excellent sub-40min time, earning the first prize in the F40 category. Sarah Gurney was next and won the top prize in the F45 vets group and our A-team was completed by Natalie Cain.Sarah Shedden collected the runner-up prize in the F40 category and made up our B-team with Emma Carter and Joy Radford. Joy also won the F65 vets category.The ladies' C-team was comprised of Melissa Callister, Gill Goodwin and Sarah Aldridge.
n
nRichard Bidgood headed up our gents teams, finishing twelfth overall and coming second in the M40 category. The rest of our A-team was made up of Lloyd Dickson (just two seconds ahead of) George Belfield and then Bruce Ayling.The B-team featured Simon Gillett, Stephen Lowy, Saul Duck and Steve Cluett and our gents C-team was Steve Goodwin, Richard Munro, David Walker and Jonathan Kane who won first prize in the M75 vets category.
n
nIn terms of the league our ladies' A-team came first, however due to successes earlier in the season the Southampton AC team have pushed us into second place overall in the table. Our B-team also came first out of the teams in their division and are now unbeatable at the top of that table. The ladies' C-team finished eleventh out of the teams in that same division and are currently fifth overall.Our gents' A-team finished fourth in their division and remain comfortably third overall in that table. Our B-team and C-teams came sixth and twelfth respectively out of the teams in the B-Division and therefore currently reside in second place (just) and tenth place overall respectively.
n
nSo with just two races to go this season some of the final league results are going to be too close to call. Our ladies' A-team could still win but they've got quite a task ahead, requiring some great performances at the Eastleigh and Lordshill 10ks.
