British Masters Track 10km Champs, Oxford 23rd May 10
Two well supported events in one weekend to choose from – but some did both despite temperatures well over 80 on both days and races at the height of the midday sun! Although Shaun soon caught Hannell in the Masters Championship, the latter was in front again after a third of the race as Shaun suffered. A brave effort at about half way saw Shaun back in front and slowly pulling away for the rest of the race to finish just over 100 metres clear but unable to catch the 1st M65 and more than a lap closer than usual at the moment. This meant the 1 hour competitors were in fact out for less time than SWC’s 10km Masters but similarly slowed by the otherwise welcome sunshine.

Results:
1. T.Jones (Steyn 1st M50) 55 min 32.96 sec; 2. S.Allen (Barnet 2nd M50) 59 min 38.04 sec; 3. R.Penfold (Steyn 1st M65); 4. S.Lightman (Sy WC 2nd M65) 1 hr 2 min 30.67 sec; 6. P.Hannell (SyWC 3rd M65) 1 hr 3 min 16.40 sec.
