Liversedge Half

Todmorden Harriers 2010 Club Road Championship opened with the Liversedge Half Marathon on Sunday. Twelve Harriers tackled the 13.1 mile race which followed an undulating hilly course starting and finishing at Roberttown, travelling through Liversedge, Bailiff Bridge and Brighouse.


Mark Anderton continued his fine start to the year to finish in 35th place in a quality field of over 400, with the race won by Edward Mitchell in a quick time of 1:13:16.


Martin Stork and David Baldaro battled throughout with just 12 seconds separating them at the finish.


Karen Gray – completing her 2nd half marathon in successive weekends – was Todmorden’s first lady finisher winning the 2nd vet45 prize, finishing just 6 seconds behind club mate Richard O’Sullivan.

Mel Blackhurst followed them home, to also take 2nd prize in the vet40 category.
