UK 100km Championships &<br />
Anglo-Celtic Plate, Cardiff<br />
Cardiff’s Bute Park was the setting for the UK 100km<br />
championship and the annual competition between the nations<br />
of Ireland, England, Wales and Scotland, but this year Ireland were<br />
unable to compete. Dominic Croft of England secured his second<br />
title after a lengthy absence through injury. He ran an<br />
impressively even-paced race, avoiding the energy-sapping early<br />
battles to pull through in the last quarter. In second place Matt<br />
Giles made his 100km debut He led the race at various stages but<br />
a calf injury forced him to slow.<br />
It was another debutant, Emma Gooderham, who provided<br />
the outstanding performance of the day as she led from start to<br />
finish to set a new event record of 8:03. Despite Scotland having<br />
two runners in the top three, Vicky Skelton’s solid fourth place<br />
was enough for the England ladies team to retain the Anglo Celtic<br />
Plate.<br />
