Athletics: Shaun leads the way
IT was a Calder Valley one-two in the Flower Scar fell race at the weekend.
Shaun Godsman was fastest over the four mile route which at one stage reaches the highest point in Todmorden, finishing in 28 minutes, 52 seconds with teammate Ben Mounsey second in 29 minutes exactly.
And the duo's colleague Jo Waites maintained her current good form to be first lady home and 13th fnisher overall in 33.44.
At Mytholmroyd, a record field of 128 runners were undeterred by the hot weather and tackled a seven mile route including a long, hard climb from the Rochdale canal up Crow Hill and onto Wadsworth Moor with another tough climb near the Castle Carr private estate.
And it was another Calder Valley double with Adam Breaks coming home first in 46.22 and teammate Gayle Sugden first lady home in 56.43.
Calder Valley also won the men's and ladies' team event with Breaks, Gary Oldfield and Jason Stevens starring for the men,whilst the top lady performers were Sugden, Luddenden's Anne Johnson and Jackie Scarf of Cragg Vale.
