Motherwell Athletics Club - Time Trials 2010

The winners of this month's time trial notched significant improvements on their February performances.

Irene Kerr came in on 42.58, a full three minutes better than last month's time.

Malcolm Moffat recorded 38.06, losing two minutes 33 seconds from his result four weeks ago.

The wooden spoon went to John Hughes for a below par performance.

A total of 34 runners turned out on a chilly evening.

Full results to follow.

The event was won decisively by Chloe Irwin with 13 runners in the competition.

Chloe avoided all the walkers, dogs and footballers on the paths around the sports ground.

The weather was perfect and the runners set off as usual at a brisk pace.

One DNF but otherwise a successful morning.

Here, in plenty time ahead of the March 9 event, are the handicaps.

The first points-scoring event of 2010 saw 29 runners participating on a cold and frosty evening with temperatures down to -2c.

Gerald Hartley was on fire though with a time of 27.18 to win the men's race.

Irene Kerr took the women's honour with a time of 45.56.

The wooden spoon, aka Daffy Duck, went to Graeme St John.

The dates of this year's Road Runners' Time Trial Championship events have been agreed and are as follows.

Not surprisingly, Tuesday's event has fallen victim to the weather.

Snow and ice on the route mean it would be too risky to go ahead.

The points-scoring time trials don't begin until next month so there won't be any impact on the 2010 Time Trial championship.

This month's time trial is due to be held on Tuesday, January 12, but is dependent on the weather.

Please keep an eye on the website for an announcement.

In the meantime, here are the handicaps and the results to December 2009.
