Roddlesworth Roller Sun 8th March.

A pretty miserable day greeted the runners to this local race with cold drizzly conditions, but it did not dampen the spirit of the 282 runners, with Rob Jackson in particular having a super run finishing in second place in a time of 33.59, and taking first vet. Fortunately the lads got the formula right and plumped for the vet positions as Paul Boardman’s 16th place and Ian Hamer’s 18th was good enough for the first vets team. Suzanne Budgett fresh! from her trip round Pendle, seems intent on collected all her race 0/45 prizes, running a fine 40.02 for fourth lady overall, Rachel Metcalfe (44.01) gave good support in 13th place, and with Gaynor Higson (44.18) running well in 15th the ladies collected the team prize. Thirteen Harriers ran the race and full results can be seen on: http://www.ukresults.net/2009/roller.html
