DESPITE hot conditions, City of Salisbury athletes flew the flag at three testing endurance events.

Kevin Daniels’ choice was the Frome half marathon, where his good time of 1hour 32min 32sec placed him among the day’s top 20 finishers.

At the Dorset Invader off-road half marathon over the same 13.1mile distance, Reece Ingram stopped the clock at 1.41.17 for a well-earned tenth place. He was followed by Sue Howland in 2.42.33, Jay Friedlander 3.10.42 and Andy Robbins just a second slower.

Liz Roberts was the club’s sole contender in the multi terrain Dorset event based at the same location, and she did commendably to finish in 5.43.20.
