On Thursday, Lagan Valley AC hosted the fourth of their Power NI sponsored ‘Super 5’ meetings, again with much improved, if humid, weather and some good sunshine. This time the 100m and 1500m races or their equivalents were the featured track events and again the North Down Fundamentals Group were out in force. Zac Monaghan, Sam Corbett, Harvey Hughes, Megan Drummond, Emma Stevenson, Annabel McNutt, Eva Cumming, Katie Kimber and Rachael White were the U11’s and though Zac and Megan appear to be the top guns this season, all did very well and showed great versatility. Remember there are fields of up to 40 at these ages. Johnny Moore, only a few months older scored high as an U13 while in the U15’s Aaron Sexton, Saskia Greer, Olivia Cumming and Holly Brannigan were all top-six sprinters.
In the senior 100m, Curtis Woods was 1st U23 in 11.29 sec and Kenny Elliott was 2nd Senior in 11.21 with Roger Sexton running 11.76 to break his own North Down veterans record. Get used to reading the last bit, it’s a recurring theme of the season. Francis Marsh and Ciaran Farren ran in the Senior 1500m, Francis running an excellent 4th and 1st Master in 4:19.04.
