Leading the way was Andy Hawtin, who recorded an excellent 35<sup>th<\/sup> place finish, over what he recognises is not his favourite racing surface. Next, in 91<sup>st<\/sup>, was one of the Club\u2019s most consistent runners on all surfaces, Mark Harriot, who just got the better of Chris Hanman, who justifiably laid claim to the \u2018performance of the day\u2019 as he collected the 93<sup>rd<\/sup> place finishing token. Rom Chambard ran strongly for 102<sup>nd<\/sup> place with the rest of the team scorers, Andy Orme in 131<sup>st<\/sup>, Matt Long in 151<sup>st<\/sup>, Ian Archer in 179<sup>th<\/sup> and Ross Ballinger in 195<sup>th<\/sup> spread out down the field. Chris Elsegood ran strongly for 212<sup>th<\/sup> with Joe Baldwin and Mitch Timms in fairly close order in 237<sup>th<\/sup> and 245<sup>th<\/sup> finishing places. Robin Thorne in 265<sup>th<\/sup>, Mark Nixon in 275<sup>th<\/sup> and David Walters in 298<sup>th<\/sup> completed the Club\u2019s finishers in the men\u2019s race.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The improving Katie Dennis led the Club\u2019s women home, in what was a very competitive race, with a superb 21<sup>st<\/sup> place finish. Women\u2019s Club Captain, Lisa Wright ran strongly for 34<sup>th<\/sup> with Nikki Reeves in 54<sup>th<\/sup> and Becky Lenaghan in a well-run 109<sup>th<\/sup> completing the women\u2019s team finishers. Emma Sharp, a day after reaching the milestone of 250 parkruns, finished in 150<sup>th<\/sup> with Anna Casey collecting the 167<sup>th<\/sup> place token after another committed run. Julianne Walters chose one of the longest and muddiest cross country courses to make her debut at the discipline and deserves great credit for passing the test with flying colours as she finished in 172<sup>nd<\/sup> place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Four of the Club\u2019s runners were on a slightly firmer surface as they tackled the annual Sneyd Christmas Pudding 10 miler. Over a relatively flat course but in gusty conditions Chris Mason was first back in 71:55, a performance that was good enough to secure the MV65 prize and a 49<sup>th<\/sup> place finish. Also amongst the prizes was Tracey Glover, whose well deserved distance PB of 75:18, secured the WV45 prize and a 71<sup>st<\/sup> place finish.\u00a0 Steve Leafe battled well for his 75:47 with the hard running Gary Price completing the quartet with a highly creditable 82:51. Lastly, James Farmer, a first year student at Aberystwyth proved he is making the most of university by setting a superb PB at the Aber 10k of 35:39<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was another mud fest for the seventeen runners from the Club who took part on Sunday in the latest leg of the Derby Runner Cross Country League, over a new course at Mallory Park.
