Borders League - Race 4 - Abergele organised by Abergele on 14/02/2010 (Seniors)
Abergele put on an interesting race at Pensarn in North Wales on Valentine's Day. The out and back route with fine views of Gwrych Castle and the North Wales coast was well marshalled and had accurate mile markers. Wallasey A.C. had 27 runners in the race and both teams did well. The men were led home by another excellent run by Greg Jones who finished in 12th place, completing the 5 mile course in 28:14. Not far behind him was Connor McArdle showing good form for 22nd (28:46). The other runners making up the 10 to count were Tony Barbat, Phil Cuthbert, Keith Simpson, Matt Williams, Richard Perry, Mike Hughes, Andy Rogerson and Pete McArdle. Pete had a fine run knocking 41/2 minutes off his last time on the course. The men finished the day in 5th place and occupy 4th place in division one after three events. The ladies team finished a satisfying 3rd on the day and lie in 3rd place in division one. First to cross the line for the ladies team was Tricia Jones in a pleasing 11th place. Other counters were Sallie Holt, Sharon Lamont and Anne Taylor-Kilbane.
