9 A&T runners made their way to a chilly Southport on Sunday morning to compete in the Natterjack Seaside10km in and around the environs of Victoria Park. Two of the runners produced fantastic performances.
Simon Ford, in the form of his life, produced a wonderful run to finish 7th overall from a field of 689 runners in a time of 35mins 24 secs wiping 35 seconds off the PB he scored at Rufford in September. He's set a new benchmark for himself now and may contemplate another crack at his PB before the end of the year.
The second outstanding run came from Scott Christey, who finished 21st and clocked 37mins 32 secs, again another huge PB. Scott got off to his customary quick-fire start and soon settled down to master the flat but winding course.
Troy Topping, short of training, achieved his aim of a sub 39 minute finish with 38:58 and Garry Baines followed up his PB at Rufford with another consistent run of 42:22, albeit a little short of his target of sub 42.
Paul Mason ran strongly to finish in 46:25 followed by Leonard Unsworth who crossed the loine in 51:21.
Julie Jenkins came home in 57:45 and Helen Minshall will be very pleased with her time of 58minutes dead.
Finally Joanne Fairhurst followed her exploits in Berlin, with another steady run of 1:04:44 just 14 seconds outside her PB.
