Three of the club’s senior ladies took part in the Southport Mad Dog 10km. race held on a circular flat course on the front at the seaside town. The open nature of the course and the current wind weather made the going more difficult than might be expected. First of the trio to finish the race, in a time of 52 min.26 secs. for the 642nd. place, was Laura Bunting (F45). Collette Flaherty (F35)’s time was 63 min.32 secs. for 1,626th. place and Jane Makin (F45) ran 77 min.09 secs. for 2,334th..If the ladies finishing positions seem high it should be borne in mind that there were over 2,500 finishers in the race.
