Sunday 17th January – Ken Dixon Handicap at Fewston
Posted by admin in News & Results on January 17, 2010
Following the cancellation of the 5.05 mile Ken Dixon Handicap in December, the event finally took place today.
This Handicap was the last counting race in the 2009 Championship and the points gained will also be used as the first points for the 2010 Handicap Championship.
Snow and ice led to a couple of route changes, up and down the Timble ‘bypass’ rather than the usual loop round the village and reverting back to the original finish on the main track. First home on the day was Zack however as he had been set off a bit early, the ‘real’ winner was Carol, her first handicap win since 1998. Zack did record the fastest time of the day. One of the best performances of the day was by Rachael with a net time just 42 seconds off the 16 yr old women’s record and almost 5 minutes quicker than last year in spite of the awful underfoot conditions.
The Final 2009 Handicap Table and past results are available from the Club Handicap Championship Page. Congratulations to Billy Rayner who confirmed his overall victory in the 2009 Championship ahead of second placed Neil Charlton and third placed Ian Fisher.
The second Club Handicap Race for 2010 will be the all road 6.1 mile Square & Compass from North Rigton on a date to be confirmed following the recent Yorkshire Cross-Country Championships re-scheduling to Saturday 20th February.
