MFR at the Syd Quirk Half Marathon

The annual Syd Quirk Half Marathon has always attracted a big contingent of MFR and Sunday was no exception with the club producing 22 finishers, significantly more than any other local club - quite an achievement for a fell running club!

Highest placed finisher was Chris Reynolds who capitalised on his excellent recent form to smash his PB in 77:50 and take 7th overall. Eleanor Miklos was another to record another significant PB (and an Island Games consideration time) in finishing women’s runner up in 86:53, a brilliant run for someone who rarely runs on the roads!

In between Eleanor and Chris there were several other MFR in top 20 with Neil Brogan, Ali Morris, Adam Huxham and Sam Looker all having fine runs in near perfect conditions.

There was also a good medal haul among the category prizes with Graeme Hatcher (M45), Maggie Watkins (W55) and Jane Rose (W60) all taking top spot in their respective categories.
