Hail The Champion

Harrier Les Lock was crowned British Masters 10km Champion last weekend when we competed at the Masters 10km Road Race held at Newtown, Powys. Les ran a personal best 35.52 at the event to win the V55 category ahead of his nearest rival by 20 seconds. Les has continued to improve since joining the Harriers with his son Tom two years ago and training with the Tuesday group at the Milfield track. Les would have bolstered the Harriers V50 team which without him finished 6^th at the South of England Road relays held the same weekend. Les now waits to see if he has done enough to earn selection for the English team that will compete at the home countries cross country match coming up in Belfast in a few weeks time.
