Results of the Isle of Man 10km track walking
championships held at the N.S.C track on Wednesday evening
from Bridget Kaneen.
Victory went to Steve Partington who only just missed out on breaking 44
minutes in fairly ideal racing conditions and showing that despite being in 50k
training for the Dublin Grand Prix later this month that he is still pretty sharp.
Peter
Kaneen was second to finish, slightly below par after his third race in under a week.
Other notable performances of the night were personal bests for Sean
Hands and Les Brown. Sadly, there were no female finishers when Marie Latham
was forced to pull off the track with shin problems.
