The Barney Memorial 5k is the season’s final 5k race
dedicated to the late Mike Barney. As well as being a stand along race it also
incorporates the public prize giving for the Peterborough Summer series of 5k
races and GRC’s Rob Howbrook was one of the big winners taking first prize in
his age group after being runner up in 2017. There were however three of GRC’s
runners competing on the night. First home for our local club was Holly Durham
in 20:52 her fastest time in this year’s series and just 13 seconds shy of her all-time
best set on a much faster track. Next
home was older sister Penny Hodges running her first ever 5k race and finishing
in a pleasing 22:03 considering the poor start she was able to get due to the
crowding on the first couple of 90 degree bends. She was please to bag a UKA
ranking outside the top 200 as joint 202nd in the FV40 category. Completing the line-up
for GRC was Robert McArdl in 23:14.
