REPORT FOR SENIOR AND JUNIOR MENS RACE

 

Rugby & Northampton  Senior Mens squad won back the team trophy at a Rain soaked Croyland Park, Wellingborough. The constant downpour  made the course one of the worst underfoot conditions That the event has known.  

Two of the pre-race favourites were forced to drop out, one of which was Mathew Almond ,which made the task even harder for the Mens team.  

It proved to be a case of  all our yesterdays and leading home the Mens squad For the first time ever was Vince Carroll when he finished in 10th place with a time Of  44 mins 17 secs.  Chasing him hard all the way to the line was Brendan Moen In 11th spot  just 12 seconds behind. Tom Causebrook  was the only  non  Veteran in the team and he clinched 13th position With  45.19. Completing the six man team was Brian Summers  ( 17th  in 46.26 ), Guy Petersen ( 20th  in  47.01) and  Terry Egan  ( 21st  in  47.07 ).  

Although  it was there worst team score for 20 years it was still enough to win the title For the 15th time.   John  Saw was the only other Senior man to finish  ( 28th  in  51.42 )
