Snowdon International

Tue 5 August 2003 - Ian Taylor

Congratulations to Sharon McBurney on an excellent performance in the Snowdon International. Sharon was fifth in the Ladies category in 1:29:00, with the leading lady being Dawn Scott of England in 1:25:40. More significant, Sharon led the ladies field at the summit but lost time on the steep parts of the descent. With more experience Sharon can improve still further on this performance.
In the mens team, Mark Alexander finished in 34 place in 1:18:01, closely followed by Alex Brennan (40th in 1:19:04) and Simon Taylor (42 in 1:19:25). The winner was Tim Davies of Wales in 1:05:57, fresh from a excellent performance in the European Championship in Italy. Ahead of NI team members was former NI team member, Geraint Florida-James,in 31st place, just back from injury. In defence of World Trophy team members Alex & Simon, it should be said that they needed to conserve their feet for further training leading up to the World Trophy in September!
