Nine Harriers were in attendance for the 31st Swinton Half Marathonn – this
year a counter in the club’s road and overall championships, as well as
the Central Lancs Grand Prix. From the start a lead group was quickly
established with a strong Horwich presence of four runners. First

place. Next to finish were Colin Rigby, Alastair Murray, (completing the
winning team) and Rob Jackson, packing well in 5th, 6th and 7th places.
Alastair was especially pleased with a 6 minute PB of 74:53. Denis Mason
came close to his target time finishing in 21st with 81:15. The team for
the Central Lancs was completed by Gary Chadderton (1:37:51) Robert
Whitaker (very pleased with 1:45:49) Stuart Adamson (1:52:45) and David
