Thomas Boardman shot to the top of this year’s harrier’s 10 mile rankings on Sunday, running 51:16sec in the Guys 10 mile road race at Preston.  Thomas was looking for a fast time and was not disillusioned by high winds for the first four miles; undeterred he  ran a competitive race finishing in second place in 51:16sec in a field of over 300 runners.

Twenty one year old Leigh Harrier Lauren Howarth stood on the winners rostrum for the fourth time in a European Cross Country Championships at Velenje Slovenia on Sunday.  Lauren represented Great Britain for the third time in the European Championships, competing in the 6km under 23 ladies championships; the race was over a flat fast course against the best runners in Europe and Lauren ran a brilliant race fully justifying her selection for the team finishing 13^th place overall and on the winners stage to receive a team gold medal, this for the third time in her short career.
