Kent AC runner speeds to a 65:37 chip time while Calli Hauger-Thackery and Lily Partridge make an impact on the UK all-time women's 10km rankings

LAMBERT & FOSTER PADDOCK WOOD HALF-MARATHON, Kent, March 3

Nick Torry won by over a minute and his 65:40 clocking equalled the longest-standing British Masters best time in the books, Martin Duff reports.

It was in the M45 division and the Kent AC runner’s chip to chip time of 65:37 bettered the gun time of Bill Venus, whose 65:40 was set at Gateshead in April 1986, not in the Great North Run as indicated by Power of 10.

Torry, 48, was on his own for much of the race as Nick Dawson’s 66:42 placed him a distant second.

It was the former Serpentine runner's quickest half-marathon for five years when he won this race in a slightly faster 65:34. His marathon PB of 2:15:04 was set in 2013.

Women’s winner Rebecca Bunting was nearly two minutes quicker than her PB, set in September last year, with 75:44, a time that would have ranked the London Heathside runner second on the 2023 UK W40 rankings.

Another W40 finished second, as former world 50km medallist Amy Clements posted 77:21.

Overall: 1 N Torry (Kent, M45) 65:40; 2 N Dawson (B&H) 66:42; 3 J Burgess (Lewes) 67:48; 4 A Reid (Tun W) 68:24; 5 N Ellis (Ton) 69:09; 6 D Bradley (Ton) 69:12; 7 J Ross (High) 69:27; 8 J Walker (VP&TH) 69:27; 9 B Tyler (M&M) 69:32; 10 A Wilson (Dulw R) 69:36

CAMBRIDGE HALF-MARATHON, March 3

Freddie Hessian got away from a battling group of five runners to take the race in a PB 64:48, Martin Duff reports.

The Notts AC runner had been part of a quartet of who had broken clear by the 5km marker in 14:55. Also there were Seyfu Jamaal, Chris Thomas and David Bishop and the four were still away together at 10km, reached in 30:33.

The third 5km saw Hessian open up a gap on the others and remained clear to the end to win from Jamaal, whose 65:00 was enough to hold off a fast-finishing Peter Molloy who had bridged the gap to the leaders, taking just 3:11 for the final 3.1km.

Lucy Reid had set a  70:30 PB in Seville at the end of January but, here, found 71:41 enough for a comfortable victory, by nearly a minute, over Tonbridge team mate Phoebe Barker, after hitting the front from the start.

The 5km time was 16:05 where Reid found herself well clear of Holly Archer’s 16:38 as Barker ran with another Tonbridge athlete, Verity Hopkins at 16:52.

Thereafter. Reid went further ahead to reach 10km in 33:10 as Barker moved up to second after a 16:56 third 5km before a final 72:38 clocking in her first half-marathon.

Andrew Leach went second all-time in the UK M60 rankings with a 73:51 and it's only ever been beaten in the age group by Martin Rees's 71:30 in 2013.

TRAFFORD 10km, March 3

Calli Hauger-Thackery took a minute off of her PB as her 31:12 clocking moved her to sixth all-time in the UK and reconfirmed the Paris Olympics marathon-bound Hallamshire Harrier is in exceptional shape.

Lily Partridge also had an exceptional breakthrough in second as she improved her 33:02 PB all the way to 31:31 while her 31:29 chip time moves her to equal 10th with Wendy Sly set 41 years ago.

Partridge's time moved her up 90 places in the all-time lists and past her mother Ruth's PB of 32:27 in 1989, set two years before Lily was born.

Clara Evans had a half-minute PB of 31:57 to go second in the Welsh all-time lists.

Indeed the whole of the remaining top 10 - Verity Ockenden (32:04), Sophie Wallis (32:06), Philippa Bowden (32:35), Almi Nerurkar, Lauren Hall (32:49), Emily Haggard Kearney (32:50) and Megan Gadsby (33:11) also ran their fastest ever times though a few of the latter ones were debuting.

The men's times were completely outshadowed by the women's though as Swede Victor Urquhart Smångs (28:57) headed  Andrew Heyes (29:18) and Andrew Fyfe (29:18).

The latter enjoyed a breakthrough as his previous beset was 29:55 as the first 26 broke the half-hour barrier.

Fell races

ILKLEY MOOR FELL RACE (Inc Yorkshire Championships), Ilkley, March 3

Ben Rothery of hosts Ilkley Harriers won his second Yorkshire fell running title as his 37:06 gave him a 400m winning margin over 17 year-old clubmate Sam Bentham, who finished 20th in last year's World Cup race at Annecy.

Bentham was not entered in the Yorkshire event and Joe Baxter won the senior silver medal.

Leeds University student Eva Whitaker, only 18 years-old, won the women's race by exactly a minute.
