Cirencester Athletics and Triathlon Club
Brecon Becons Ultra

ROBBIE BROWN had yet another great run in the Brecon Beacons Ultra beating many international runners in a highly competitive 46-mile multi-terrain event.

Finishing in seventh place ahead of several British team members, Robbie again demonstrated his position as one of the club's very best runners.

Richard Hurdle also ran well to finish in 25th place and Lara Tompson produced a fine result finishing in the dark at the end of a wet and dismal day.

RESULTS: 1 Sam Humphrey (Victoria Park Harriers) 6:14.58; 7 Robbie Brown 7:10.25; 25 Richard Hurdle 8:23.01; 184 Lara Tompson 12:05.53. 210 finished.

Castle Combe Chilly 10k

DAVE BELL, another top club runner, had a convincing win in the Castle Combe Chilly 10k having led from the gun to finish only five seconds short of his PB.

Barbara Thomas found another race to contribute to her annual tally and it was good to see Andrew Jones running competitively.

RESULTS: 1 David Bell 32.13; 338 Barbara Thomas 54.09; 386 Andrew Jones 55.59. 700 finished.

Broadway Marathon

COMPARED to the 46 miles of the Brecons Ultra, the Broadway Marathon should have been a 'walk in the park', albeit a very muddy one.

Karen Higuera thrived, racing up the long hills and skipping over the mud to finish halfway up the field and second in her age group despite losing her way towards the end.

Rupert Chesmore and Liza Darroch enjoyed many stunning views but spent much time wallowing in the mire.

RESULTS: 1 Neil Wicks (Stratford upon Avon RC) 3:21.26; 53 Karen Higuera 4:51.24; 99 Rupert Chesmore 6:14.54; 100 Liza Darroch 6:14.54 (1st FV60). 105 finished.

ELSEWHERE Martin Croucher ran yet another negative split marathon, this time in Cornwall, club returnee Keith Firkin ran a strong half marathon around Dorney Lake and Rebecca Collier ran the Swindon 10k in Wroughton.
