On Tuesday 12th July whilst we were all sweating in the heat doing mile efforts at Balliol it was the annual summer Ashington Hirst Fell ‘Em Doon 5 miler and our own Bryan Ankers finished in 3rd place in a fantastic time of 32:47!
For those who know Bryan he is not one to sing his own praises so we will instead. Over the last year Bryans running has improved immensely. A great example of the more you run the faster you become. Bryan has recently taken on marathons, triathlons and the occasional fell race. All this training has certainly being paying off in recent months with Bryan moving up the Heaton training groups and achieving some great race results on the road and trails.
Not only did Bryan finish 3rd overall he was also the 1st in the senior age category to finish. Well done Bry!
Full race results can be found on the Ashington Hirst Website.
