PICTURES BY PETER KANEEN, STAN HALL BRIDGET
KANEEN & MURRAY LAMBDEN

There was another excellent field for the
senior races ar Ramsey for the third round of the league (PK)
Aaron Whipp (under 17s), Keiron Murray (hidden),
Ashely Whipp, Ray Cox, Phil Cain 81) lead the chase after start
to finish winner Paul Sheard. (SH)

Paul Sheard won by a minute a half and with
two wins and a second in three rounds will surely be hard to
beat in the league (SH)

Cal Partington also scored her second win
in a row (PK)

Steve Partington and Keith Callister had a
good battle for fourth behind Sheard, Murray Lambden and Andy
Cannell (PK)
Philip Knox of St Marys and Sam Black of Manx
Harriers were just three seconds apart in the under 11 boys.
Here they push themselves hard in front of a large crowd of
spectators (ML).
Bridget
Kaneen's pictures shows the big crowd of spectators at the Manx
Gas Cross Country League. The start of the Under 9s race.
Dean Kinley was third in the same race but
he had withstand an almighty sprint in the few yards remaining
to stay ahead of the girls winner from the same age group,
Lauren Whelan. (ML)

Welbeck Hotel proprietor, Michael George,
is improving with every race this winter after not running over
the country for more than 20 years. In this picture, by
Peter Kaneen, he is leading under 17s winner Aaron Whipp and
Keith Lowe, who just pipped Mike. In the background is
a very tired running Keiron Murray who competed in the Reebok
Challenge in Liverpool the previous day. (PK)
and finally one of Stan Hall's collection
He has
a good shot of Lee Butterworth leading the under 15s. Tucked
in behind is the eventual winner Ben Brand who took revenge
on Lee for the previous weeks results on Peel Hill. Hidden
(blue top) is Ryan Fairclough who also passed Lee while 4th
placed Neil Cowley is in hot pursuit.
