Fine conditions with 16 degrees and light winds brought some fantastic times tonight. Preliminary times are here.
And the fine conditions resulted in several seasons bests, course bests and an unusual record. The 18 Harriers running tonight enjoyed almost perfect conditions. Course/Personal bests were achieved by Geo Ferguson (21:48) taking 2 seconds off his best set in 2011, Neil Green equalling his personal best (18:56) with the fastest time of the evening, Martin Howell (19:50) taking 46 seconds off and Mark Saez (19:12) improving by 49 seconds. There were 5 runners under 20 minutes which makes this one of the fastest average fields in the Auldhouse 5k history; a good sign for the club.
Seasons bests went to Richard Lawton, Charlie McDougall, John McBride, Jamie McMonagle, Stephen Phimister and David Searil whilst Darius Pless (24:24) made his debut straight after his first half marathon in Edinburgh on Sunday.
A long-standing record was also broken tonight by the unstoppable Davie Searil. Davie was first off in the time trial and managed to sustain his lead to the finish in a seasons best whilst being pursued by a very fast field. Running scared is a great motivator. I am sure Russell will be the first to congratulate Davie on taking his record.

Well done, what fantastic times. Not a good night for me to be working late when I could have been going for a PB.
