Date: 24/12/2019

Road Running Championship 2019 Final Standings.

Yesterday’s Waterside 10K brought to a close the 2019 road runners championship and over 45 of you competed in at least one race across the year and hopefully enjoyed taking part. We witnessed some fantastic performances across the season, the highest age grading being Paul Mingay’s 93.6% at the Fenland 10. The overall championship is an average of the best three age graded performance’s across the season – so you need to be in it, to win it!! 

Chris Cooke is 2019’s overall winner with an outstanding overall average of 90.2% – an amazing result across the season. Well done Chris and you will be awarded your trophy at this years AGM! Jane Ashby also had a fantastic season and finished as runner up with 87.96% (best 3 from 4). I managed to just stay ahead of fellow club mate Rod McKee on 81.24% who achieved a string of PB’s to close another fantastic year of running. Pauline Stocker 5th on 75.04% – Matthew Mason, 6th 67.46% and Keith Morris 7th – 60.03%. 

Next years campaign will grow to 7 races, with the best 4 to count – adding the Peterborough Marathon on April 5th and a 5k race (TBC) to suit all EMAC members. 

The entries for Peterborough are already open – its a great race and i highly recommend it. https://www.sublimeracing.com/…/sublime-peterborough-marath…

I hope that you have all enjoyed the season and look forward to seeing you at a race soon.
