On Tuesday 7th August Morpeth Harriers hosted their undulating two lap 10k just outside the town at Tranwell, a race which formed part of our 2018 Grand Prix series. Following on from his outstanding performance in the recent Northumberland Coastal Run Dan TURNBULL once again put in an amazing run to finish 2nd, just over a minute behind the race winner. Dan clocked a very good 33.54, to hold off the 3rd placed runner by just a couple of seconds. James WILLOUGHBY was next back for us in a very good 20th, just over 30 seconds ahead of Dominic HARRIS. Also within the top 50 were Ian SIMON and Jon ARCHER, whilst reasonably new Harrier Laurence REEVES was 51st in 40.24. Peter GREY was winner of the male 60 category and also took home the North East Masters 10k Championships 10k gold medal! 1st Alnwick female back was Tracey SAMPLE in 46.44, whilst Bev BLYTHE ran well and Lorna STEPHENSON clocked a 10k pb! A very good night all round for our athletes.
