Mike Garrett on his way to victory

Alan Postlethwaite completed the Isle of Man Bank Peel to Douglas run on Monday evening 40 years after his first finish. After his debut in 1966 he didn't return until 1989 and has now run a total of 15 times. He best time was 1:04:14 in 1993. This year was a personal worst (1:14:39) but was a significant race after a series of career threatening injuries which ruled him out of the London Marathon this year. He planned to run in the Dave Phillips road races in Peel last night.

Tony Duncan (137) and Simon Lowe (113) were two more athletes who ran in the Peel to Douglas a little over a week after running in the London Marathon.

manxathletics.com is an independent site designed, edited and funded by Murray Lambden.

The site was updated daily for three and a half years until June 2004 when the webeditor took a sabbatical. 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. manxathletics.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
