Report: IMPINGTON 5K FUN RUN 2009

 by Neil Davies

SUNDAY 3RD MAY

On a rather blustery May morning nearly 200 runners took part in the Sixth Impington 5K Fun Run and the new Impington 1k Fun Run for Under 7s on courses starting from Histon & Impington Recreation Ground.

Both runs were started by Steve Fallon manager of Histon Football Club taking time out from preparations for Histon FCs play off game with Torquay.

The Impington 1k was a great success with nearly fifty under sevens completing the 1000 metre course around Histon and Impington Recreation Ground.

The keenly fought 5k race around the Rec and farm treks around Chivers Farms saw local Impington runner Ashley Grimmer lead the way home followed by the Histon veteran runner Michael Scott .

Top three finishers;

1. Ashley Grimmer in a time of 17 mins 38 seconds

2. Michael Scott 17.47

3. Cliff Bailey 18.09

All the various categories had good performances, and the respective winners were as follows;

Under 11 boys; Sam Mace 20.14

Under 11 girls; Pernille Nielsen 25.45

Under 15 boys; Adam Tapley 18.17

Under 15 girls ; Claire Wilson 21.05

Men Under 40; Ashley Grimmer 17.48

Women Under 40; Jo Jones 19.43

Men Vets; Michael Scott 17.47

Women Vets; Liz Porteous 24.53

Thank you to all the participants for making the event so enjoyable for all.

The Friends of Histon & Impington Recreation Ground would like to thank Caroline Chivers of Chivers Farms Ltd for the use of their farm for the course, and for Dentons Carpets for their sponsorship of the event.
