Cat And Carl Fly Morpeth Flag In Europe

Two members of the club travelled to Europe at the weekend to take part in high-profile competitions in Italy and Germany.
 
Catriona Macdonald collected another Scotland vest when competing once again in the popular if very challenging Trofeo Vanoni race in Northern Italy.
 
A 7.2 kilometre fell run from the centre of the town of Morbegno -  which includes 435 metres of sharp ascending and descending - Macdonald was part of a two person Scotland Women’s team that finished 7th overall, taking the second leg in 24:02 after first leg runner Isla Patterson had run 24:58.

Meanwhile Carl Avery travelled to Frankfurt to run in the Mainova Frankfurt Marathon, which was won by Kenyan Benard Biwott in a very fast time of 2 hours 5 minutes 54 seconds.
 
Still in the excellent form which he showed recently in Northern and National Relays, Avery himself clocked 2:17:09 for the 26.2 miles, finishing in 20th place overall and was also the second Over 35 runner.
