V40 men's team take first in relay

SIXTY-TWO from Folkestone Running & Athletics Club took part on the Kent Road Relays in Ashford on Tuesday, June 10.

- 

Runners completed two laps of the top side of the Victoria Park, past the fountain and up the hill twice (at least most runners did it twice anyway), and then diverted onto the slightly wooded path to do a single mini loop before turning onto a fast straight sprint to a packed, incredibly animated finish line area.

Folkestone had some strong results across the board, with their V40 men's A team (Jon Eaton 11:04, Nick Steele 11:07, Trevor DeVooght 11:00 and Simon Ramsay 11:12) finishing top with a two-minute lead.

V50 men's A team (Tristan Bruce 11:30, Rob Collier 12:18 and Darren Crew 12:28) finished second, only 15 seconds behind the top spot.

V60 men's A team (Andrew Noble 12:08, Torben Jessen 12:53 and Krzysztof Klidzia 12:02) made easy work of their category using their combined age of 183 to finish top with a four-and-a-half-minute lead.

Senior women's A team (Manda Gurung 12:48, Nikki Goodwin 12:58 and Daisy Wright 13:24) crossed the line fourth with a sub 40 combined time.
