Keith Simpson first V70 at the Andover Trail Marathon
Keith Simpson, from Striders of Croydon, ran very well to be the first over-70 to finish the Andover Trail Marathon. He placed 50th overall (out of 120 finishers), completing the undulating course in 4 hours 33 minutes 23 seconds.
His club colleague James Rhodes produced another lifetime best performance at Battersea Park on Tuesday evening. He placed fourth in his heat of the 1500 metres, and his time of 4 minutes 27.57 seconds was more than eight seconds faster than his previous best.
