Connor Second At Heaton Memorial 10K
Remembrance Sunday saw the annual running of the Heaton Harriers Memorial Races, held once again on Newcastle’s Town Moor, with the main event held over 10 kilometres and preceded by a minute’s silence.
With this year’s race also including both the North East Counties Athletics Association and the North East Masters 10k Championships, there were just short of 500 finishers, as well as a series of earlier races from Under 11s upwards for Young Athletes.
The 10k was won by Birtley Harrier Adrian Bailes in a time of 31 minutes 12 seconds, Morpeth Harrier Connor Marshall chasing him all the way and having an excellent run to come home in second place in a time of 31:20, with Bailes’s team mate Lewis McConnell 3rd in 31:52.
Tyne Bridge’s Lucy Crookes was 1st female finisher in 35:31, with Helen Warburton, once of Gosforth Harriers but now also with the Newcastle club, 2nd in 35:55, and Over 35 Alex Sneddon of Jarrow and Hebburn 3rd (36:06).
There were eight other blue and white vests out, with a number of individuals picking up category prizes and NEMAA medals.
Liam Ramsay was 40th in 34:51, while John Butters continued his path on the comeback trail with a clocking of 35:42 for 3rd O/45 and 56th overall with Dominic Harris next back in 68th (36:24).
Robyn Bennett was 6th Senior woman in 38:35, with Kirsty Burville having a super run to come in as 1st O/40 in 39:48.
