BARNEY MEMORIAL 5K


The Barney Memorial 5k is the season’s final 5k race dedicated to the late Mike Barney and run at Ferry Meadows. The trio of runner from Grantham Running Club were delighted that the heavy rain abated just before the start but the underfoot conditions particularly in the wooded sections were decidedly slippy  and the exposed sections saw the runners buffeted by the wind. First home for GRC was Peter Bonner is 19:42 for whom the race came just too soon after his efforts at the Newark Half Marathon run in similar conditions. Catherine Payne was also well down on her normal time clocking 21:16 but fast enough to pick up the award for the first in her age group. The third member was Robert McArdle finishing in 23 minutes
