Off road: Kevin Bownes at Brandon Forest in one of three successful trail races

Tiptree Road Runner Laura Shewbridge continued her great run of form to finish second lady and 35th overall with a time of 33:27 in the five-mile Wibbly Wobbly Log Jog in Brandon Forest.

The race is entirely off-road, on an undulating course that includes long stretches of narrow, twisting mountain bike tracks and some demanding climbs. Jim Slater's run of 36:38 gave him second place in the V60 category. Darren Foy was next home for the club in 37:23, followed by Kevin Bownes in 37:37.

Carolyn Bownes finished in 41:18 with Barry Dobson just behind in 41:19. Ian Linton ran 42:14 with Carol Lodge completing the Tiptree squad in 54:24.

The first event of the Tour of Terling was an 8.5-mile trail race. Kevin Bownes and Jim Slater were first home for the club in 85:35, followed by Jamie Fairfull in 87:55. Roger Duffield finished in 94:59, with Carolyn Bownes and Barry Dobson completing the course in 107:10.

Earlier, in the seven-mile Black, White and Green Trail, Kevin Bownes led the club home, finishing in 68:50 with Roger Duffield on 69:07. Barry Dobson and Carolyn Bownes completed the course in 85:40.
