Round 22 - 3 Sisters, Sunday 2nd September
A Tale of Two Stallards (and a Campion
With Shunter’s supposed love of “proper pies” not enough to entice him to Wigan, the home of the pie and the Wigan kebab, (Google it!), there were four entries for round 22 of the Championship.
With Steve Dennis’s 1600M refusing to be woken from its slumbers, (or was it himself?), it was left to the three remaining combatants to fight it out on the totally re-surfaced Three Sisters circuit. |
With the weather gods smiling on us once again despite my rain dance, it was a pretty sure bet the lap record would be broken.
The first practice saw the following results: In first place was Geoff Stallard on 86.11 closely followed by Iain Stallard on 86.73 with me bringing up the rear with 88.73. The second run saw Stallard junior improve by FOUR seconds to achieve a time of 82.73, Geoff improved by just over a |
second to 85.05 and I improved to 85.97; a new PB!
The first timed run saw Stallard junior improving by a further two seconds to record a time of 80.56 with Geoff also improving to 82.19. After a slight grassy moment I managed 86.38. Only I improved on the second timed run to set a time of 85.75, another PB. |
