Leading the way in the men\u2019s race were the ever improving Chapman boys with Shane first back with a superb 54<sup>th<\/sup> place finish from Paul in 71<sup>st<\/sup>. Shane covered the course, which was just over 5 miles, in a superb 32.30. \u00a0Next across the line, &amp; showing a welcome return to form, was Chris Mason in 82<sup>nd <\/sup>followed by the ever reliable Colin Mee in 89<sup>th<\/sup> place. Making his debut for the Club in any form of racing Stuart Halsey ran brilliantly for 94<sup>th<\/sup> place with Andy Orme just missing out on a top 100 finish in 101<sup>st<\/sup>. Next to finish was another making his racing debut for the Club &amp; Christian Glover should be really pleased with a well run 134<sup>th<\/sup> place. Simon Reynolds again ran well for 141<sup>st<\/sup> place followed by Adrian Middleton, who improved significantly from his last performance at Markfield with an excellent 165<sup>th<\/sup> place to complete the team finishers. Fresh from running 5 consecutive PBs in the Conker\u2019s Parkrun, the evergreen Steve Fowler was next in 204<sup>th<\/sup> place with a tight battle between Gary Price &amp; Malcolm Moore resulting in Gary just edging it in 210<sup>th<\/sup> to Malcolm\u2019s 211th. Dave Renshaw, making his first appearance of the season, completed the finishers in the men\u2019s race in 255<sup>th<\/sup> place.<br \/>\nIn what was probably the best Club performance of the day, Jennie Laing continues to make her mark on the local running scene, with a superb 6<sup>th<\/sup> place in a time of 35.38 in the women\u2019s race.\u00a0 Jennie was followed home by yet another cross country debutant, Tracey Glover, who ran really strongly for 57<sup>th<\/sup> place. Completing the Club\u2019s finishers in the women\u2019s race was Sam Skidmore who reveled in the muddy conditions for a very respectable 88<sup>th<\/sup> place finish.\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fabulous Chapman Boys!
