FULL RESULTS (www.iomathletics.co.uk)

THE EVENT WAS ORGANISED BY MANX HARRIERS

What were your highlights of the day? Have your say on the forum.

Tony Okell took the early lead in the Manx Cross Country Championships. Left to right: Andy Fox (arm only), Nigel Armstong, Paul Sheard, Mike Garrett, Darren Gray (34),  Simon Skillicorn, John Halligan, Kevin Loundes, Tony Okell and Nick Percival.

Garrett, chases Armstong, Sheard, Loundes, Fox, Gray, Skillicorn, Halligan and Okell.

But it wasn't long before John Halligan left all challengers in his wake. Women's winner Natalie Wood (102) set the pace from the start from Jacqui Fletcher with Gail Musson and Sarah Nelson giving chase.  

Top three: Skillicorn, Halligan and Okell. (Pictures by Murray Lambden)

And finally, for a bit of fun, who had the best grimace? Left to right: Dave Newton, Nigel Armstrong, Michael George and Andy Fox. Only one winner for me - he has been the best at it for 30 years or so! A couple of the ladies may have qualified as well but I wasn't going to push my luck too far!

 

It was wonderful to see the junior classes so well supported in the Isle of Man Cross Country Championships at Pulrose on Sunday. Here are the competitors in the under 9 classes and you can identify the happy runners from the results below.  Picture by Murray Lambden; results by Graham Davies from www.iomathletics.co.uk

It now serves as a portal for Manx athletes with special features on a few events and ad hoc publishing when time permits without giving in to the addiction! Old features can be found by using the Google search below or by using the old features page.The clubs are encouraged to develop their own sites to promote their events. manx.athletics.com will complement the coverage with statistics and extra pictures but, most of all, if will try and highlight the content of other sites and give everyone a chance to air their views on the forum.

manxharriers.com which is edited by Paul Jackson, is the highly recommended sister site of manxathletics.com
