Mark is leader on road
TODMORDEN Harriers' 2010 Club Road Championship opened with the Liversedge Half Marathon on Sunday.
Twelve Harriers tackled the 13.1 mile race which followed an undulating hilly course starting and finishing at Roberttown, travelling through Liversedge, Bailiff Bridge and Brighouse.
Mark Anderton continued his fine start to the year to finish in 35th place in a quality field of over 400, with the race won by Edward Mitchell in a quick time of 1:13:16.
Martin Stork and David Baldaro battled throughout with just 12 seconds separating them at the finish.
Karen Gray – completing her second half marathon in successive weekends – was Todmorden's first lady finisher winning the second vet45 prize, finishing just six seconds behind club mate Richard O'Sullivan.
Mel Blackhurst followed them home, to also take second prize, this time in the vet40 category.
Todmorden results: 35 Mark Anderton 01:29:57; 52 Martin Stork 01:32:10; 54 David Baldaro 01:32:22; 79 Richard Butterwick 01:36:01; 111 Richard O'Sullivan 01:40:00; 112 Karen Gray 01:40:06; 130 Mel Blackhurst 01:41:56; 238 Bev Wright 01:53:50; 305 Wayne Morrison 2:02:19; 314 Mel Robertson 2:04:45; 394 Myra Wells 2:24:39.
