Borders League - Race 1 - Delamere organised by Helsby RC on 17/10/2021 5.8 Miles (Seniors)
After a hiatus of 18 months Borders League racing returned at Delamere Forest, the 5.8 mile three-lap course which consisted of the main loop of the Delamere Park Run around Blakemere Moss, the course was off road but on a predominately hard surface. Joe Boden wasted no time establishing a lead on the first lap and continued to build on this as he ran out a winner in 30:05, a great run and Joe was 42 seconds ahead of the runner up . The men's team finished third on the day and the other counters were Jack Poland (17th), Chris Jones (19th), Rob Pearse (21st), Luke Hampshire (26th), Ray Clark (31st), debutant Daniel Anderson (32nd), Mike Jones (37th), Matt Gillbanks (62nd) and Tony Barbat (94th).
Vicky McConnell led the ladies home finishing 11th, Vicky was supported by Becky Blacklock (12th), Sallie Holt (16th) and Jan McArd (24th). 44 runners represented the club and there were category wins for Joe and Sallie.
