Bridlington Road Runners teams shine at league opener

Bishop Wilton hosted the opening event of the series and Bridlington’s men lie in third place after their top six finishers all finished in the top 35 spots.

Scott Hargreaves was fourth, BRR’s fastest finisher, with James Wilson, Phill Taylor, James Briggs, Tom Mullen and Dan Cawthorne all contributing to Bridlington’s points total.

Beverley lead the way, with City of Hull second, but Bridlington are well clear of fourth-placed Pocklington.

The Brid women’s team lie fifth after the first race, but the standings are much closer than in the men’s league table.

On her debut in BRR colours, Jo Dagnan led the team home, just dipping under 50 minutes to land sixth female and 69th overall.

April-Marie Exley and Emma Artley were the club’s other point scorers.

Also on Sunday morning, Bridlington were well-represented at the Kilham All-Terrain 10k, with junior Micah Gibson the yellow and blacks’ fastest finisher on his home soil.

He completed the difficult course in an impressive 49:26, which was good enough for 42nd place.

Emma Richardson was Bridlington’s first woman and was third LV45, while Heidi Baker and Rob Calthorpe were also in the age category prizes.

Three Road Runners travelled to tackle the Manchester Marathon. Josh Taylor broke the four-hour barrier while Greg Miller and Gerard Ferre ran together and finished in under five hours.

Brid Road Runners provided the first two men and the first three females at Sewerby Parkrun on Saturday morning.

Phill Taylor won, but was pushed close by James Briggs who was only 11 seconds behind in a personal best time of 18:10, with Alan Feldberg and Martin Hutchinson also in the top 10.

Mollie Holehouse led the women home, finishing 13th overall in 21:40. Sisters Annabelle and Becky Miller were second and third, flying the flag for the club’s thriving junior section, with Becky picking up a PB time of 22:37.
