Michael Garrett and Dawn Atherton finished top of the three-lap class in Northern AC’s Park Run Series which concluded in Ramsey last Friday evening.

Although Garrett did not contest the final encounter, he had amassed enough points to see off Paul Jennings and Matt Callister in the best three out of four rounds contest over the long course.

Dawn’s teenage daughter Aalin Atherton made it a family double by winning the female class of the one-lap series in which Zac Woodward won the boys’ class from younger brother Leo.

Over the shorter single-lap races over the peripheral path of Mooragh lake, Frank Challoner won the under-nines on the night and overall, with Willow Curphey leading girl, despite being edged out by Eva Pritchard on the nighht.

The under-11s saw Ethan Burgess and Morgan Smith finish first and second on the night and overall, while Maisy-Jo Faragher was one second behind in third place on the night, first girl overall in the series.
