In wet &amp; windy conditions it was Dominic Sharman who led the way home, <!--more-->with his first victory in this year\u2019s Club Championship in a chip time of 35.48 and a superb 26<sup>th<\/sup> place overall. The race was notable for the close interclub battles and this was very much the case in the battle between Chris Pearson &amp; Andy Hawtin with Chris\u2019s 36.10 &amp; 34<sup>th<\/sup> place just edging it to Andy\u2019s 36.17 &amp; 36<sup>th<\/sup> place. \u00a0Next home was James Cassidy who ran well for his 37.01 &amp; 44<sup>th<\/sup> place overall before the ultimate tight race between Jenny Laing &amp; Christina Cooper. On chip time, only a second separated the two as Jenny won this particular battle in 39.21 to Christina\u2019s 39.22 for excellent 3<sup>rd<\/sup> &amp; 4<sup>th<\/sup> place finishes in the women\u2019s race. Both Andy Orme &amp; Steve Leafe continued their excellent recent form in recording top 100 finishes in times of 39.46 &amp; 40.07 respectively.<br \/>\nThe next tight battle was a family affair with Dave Eyre\u2019s 41.36 just getting the better, for maybe the last time, of son Tom\u2019s 41.40 with Mark Coombes finishing just a second further back in 41.41.

Ray Udall continues to defy the years in recording 45.10 before Malcolm Moore, rejoicing in running injury free, finished ahead of Paul Glover \u2018gun to tape\u2019 but behind on chip times of 47.16 to 47.08 respectively. Gary Price, looking in good form for the upcoming London Marathon, stopped the clock in 47.25 before Tim Argent, improving as he gains more racing experience, was next in a solid 48.54. Lisa Wright gave her usual maximum effort in recording 50.02 before very little separated Richard Ward, Dave Renshaw, Mark Nixon &amp; David Lunn as times of 51.25, 51.27, 51.31 &amp; 51.55 respectively confirm.<br \/>\nChris Morton ran well for his 53.00 before three runners, Seran Bradley, Karen Wilkes &amp; Kerry Ward, all making excellent racing debuts for the Club, recorded 53.33, 54.44 &amp; 55.28 respectively.
