Sunday morning saw the running of the Fell Em Doon festive 5k, organised by Ashington Hirst Running Club, through Ashington Community Woods at Lintonville with over 250 finishing the annual trail race despite some very chilly conditions.
Ali Douglas was 1st back in 15 minutes 49 seconds, with youngster Liam Roche 2nd in 16:12 and Heaton Harrier David Young 3rd (16:39). Some thirteen other Morpeth Harriers completed the race, with Dave Stabler 7th and 1st Over 45 in 17:41 and Mark Snowball just outside the top ten in 11th (18:37). Andriy Volkov was 15th (19:26), Ed Hillier 24th (20:19), Jamie Johnson 25th (20:23), Julie Vermaas 26th (and 3rd Female finisher) in 20:28, Richard Glennie 28th (20:41), Kevin Shanahan 29th (20:51), Kate Gaffing 30th (and 4th Female), Linzie Quinn 35th (and 5th), Harry Armstrong, running with his father Ian, 37th, Robyn Ferguson 58th (and 9th), and Sue Smith 104th and 1st Female Over 55. NSP triathlete Steph Maclean Dann was 1st female finisher in 19:16, with local ‘Hirstie’ Samantha Gair 2nd in 19:50 and Julie 3rd (20:28). Great turn out in a local race and good to be able to support AHRC too. Comments are closed.
