A close finish at the blustery Felinheli 10k race in midweek
It was very warm and windy for the challenging Felinheli 10k race in midweek, with three members of Meirionnydd RC finishing within the top four places overall.
Tomos Roberts and team-mate Daniel Kashi actually shared the exact same finishing chip times of 32 minutes and 21 seconds in a very close-run contest, with Ifan Dafydd claiming fourth place in 33.41; whilst in between the club rivals, was the promising youngster Noa Vaughan, who finished third in 32.53.
In addition, there some excellent performances by many of the top ten finishers including Steffan Sayer (Menai T&F) in sixth place in 34.57, and from Ian Edwards (Eryri Harriers) eighth in 36.05, and fell runner Michael Corralles (Dark Peak FR) tenth in 36.44.
Elliw Roberts (Eryri Harriers) was the first female finisher in 42.25, with Mared Llywelyn (Rhedwyr Hebog Runners) second in 42.54, and Mali Hughes third in 43.37, with two members of Cybi Striders in hot pursuit including Emma Alofs, who was fourth in 43.49, and Llio Jones in fifth place 43.52. *There were 351 finishers at Felinheli.
North Wales Road Runners only had eight members involved, probably due to this race being just a few days after the tough Nova Coast half marathon, yet they still recorded two superb age category victories and one second place, with exciting junior Joe Culverhouse enjoying another great run to finish eighteenth overall in 38.25, and he also won his Male Junior cat; whilst master vet and NWRRC chairman Kevin Slattery won his MV70 cat in seventy-seventh place in 45.52.
