FORRES HIGHLAND GAMES 10K RESULTS 8th JULY 2006
Local running club Forres Harriers were to the fore in this year's Forres Highland Games 10K Road Race.
A field of 71 runners assembled on the start line, eager to get underway over this scenic and at times undulating course. As the starter got the race underway, Forres Harrier Mark Brain was doing a little showboating around the arena before heading up the hill out of Grant Park onto St Leonards Road.
Once onto the tarmac, it was fellow club mates Ben Livesey and Kyle Greig who took on the pace at the front of the race. Up the hill towards Blervie and these two were now gaining a distinct advantage over the field, by the time they had reached the summit at the half way point in the race, it was obvious that they would finish in first and second places.
At the bottom of the descent towards The Rafford War Memorial, Kyle made his move, increasing the race tempo to gain a few yards advantage over Ben. Try as he might, Ben failed to respond to the challenge on this occasion (having just competed and winning the North Of Scotland 3000M Championships earlier in the afternoon's proceedings) settled into his own rhythm for the remainder of the race, finishing 37 seconds behind Kyle who won the race in a time of 34:18.
Siobhan Evans and Jackie Nicol brought further success to the hometown club, when finishing first and third respectively in the Lady's race.
Kyle Greig once again led Forres Harriers to the team prize for the 3rd time in a row, with support from Ben Livesey (2nd) and Mark Priestley (6th).
