A great day for a run and a course good to firm for our fabulous femmes reports Donna Nash.
2 teams were entered for the Middlesex Masters but regrettably 2 apologies from Pauline Fischer and Jackie O’Dowd recovering from skiing injuries. Wishing Pauline and Jackie a speedy recovery.
This left Morgane Lesenne, Zoe Dobbs, Melanie Spencer and Lesley Conway to represent HAC.
Conditions were good and all of our ladies put in a sterling performance.
Morgane was our first lady home in 15th place (31.16), beating 38 other competitors and having bravely avoided a rather large excitable dog. Morgane ran with style – looking strong and relaxed throughout the 6.5km. Tres bien, tres vite, tres jolie Morgane!
Following Morgane came Zoe (22nd place in 32.30), Lesley (26th in 33.41) and Melanie (29th in 34.14).
As a team we placed fifth out of 7 clubs and Lesley Conway earned a bronze medal in 55+ age cat.
Well done for a solid performance and raising the profile yet again of a great club with great athletes.
