A stronger second half in the Sarnia Walking Clubs 10 kilometres road walk saw Jason le Noury narrowly take the fastest time of the day from brother Stuart. Four seconds separated the two at the finish line. Stuart, along with Phil Lockwood had set off strongly and were together at the five kilometres point reached in 27.08, with a relaxed looking Jason eight seconds behind.Three kilometres later and Jason moved into the lead, with the early leaders still locked together. With two laps of the sixteen to go Jason had increased his lead to seventeen seconds and Stuart had moved away from Lockwood to try and close the gap on the leader. Visibly closing, with a fast last lap Stuart got within seconds of taking the lead again but ran out of road.

In the handicap section of the race for the Bob Wright Handicap trophy, Jayne Le Noury, with her third win, held off John Dedman (left)  by one second with Phil Lockwood in third place. Jayne Le Noury must now be favourite to take the title once the race discards have been taken into consideration in the five from seven race series .Lockwood currently leads the seies from Stuart Le Noury.

Lockwood Increases Series Lead

Third place in the fifth walk of the Bob Wright Handicap Series was good enough for Phil Lockwood to increase his overall lead. Walking close to his best ever time, Phil claimed the fastest time of the day with a 14.57 clocking, four seconds up on Stuart Le Noury. Jason Le Noury, third quickest of the day was hampered by a bruised foot picked up whilst playing football.
Winner of the handicapped event was Jayne Le Noury, with second home, Terry Bates, only three seconds behind. Making full use of his few minutes start Terry held fast finishing Lockwood at bay by only inches. Masters walker Mick le Sauvage claimed a new Guernsey Age 70 Best time, trimming the time set by Denis Dedman five years ago.
The next walk is on Sunday January 24th at Les Amarreurs at 9.30 am. The distance is 5 kilometres and newcomers are welcome. Further details from Jayne Le Noury, tel 246865.
