Athletics: Benfleet 15 breaks entry record for 3rd year running

An impressive run by Basildon AC's Greg Deacon saw him blast home in first place a full one minute and 30 seconds ahead of his nearest rival in a time of 1hr 30 mins 19 secs.

This was the second win for Deacon, who took first prize in 2005 in this Benfleet Running Club-organised event.

Delighted Deacon said afterwards: "I felt strong so I tried to stretch my lead in the early stages and hold it.

"I felt comfortable at eight-nine miles, but it was tough in the wind coming back.

Luckily the marshals kept telling me the next man was a long way behind so it kept me going.

"It was a lovely day and it's always nice to do a local race."

The second man home was Alex Gibbins of Blackheath and Bromley Harriers (1:31: 49) with John Weathersley of Ipswich Jaffa (1:32:26) third.

The first lady was Wendy King, of Colchester AC, in a time of 1:43:27.

Benfleet RC's Debbie Slack, who was seventh lady, took the prize for third over-35 vet.

The first Benfleet RC man to finish was Jez Mancer in 13th place. Club colleague Graham Booty was 18th.

There was disappointment for Benfleet though as they had hopes of being contenders for the men's team prize.

But their top runner, Paul Prosser, who had travelled from Brighton to compete, had to pull out with a hamstring injury when he was in seventh place and looking to move up the field.

The men's team prize went to Colchester Harriers and the ladies' award to Beckenham RC.

A spokesman for Benfleet RC said: "We are delighted at the popularity of our race.

"As it has grown so much we relocated the headquarters this year to Castle View School which was very successful.

"We were able to provide better facilities for the runners, including refreshments, which they clearly appreciated.

"The course is not for the faint-hearted as it is often muddy and hard-going across the downs, but we pride ourselves of making a challenging race an enjoyable experience for the runners.

"One lady travelled from Cambridge to compete and told me afterwards that she had no idea what to expect but finished thinking what a lovely course.

"She was glad she had made the trip to do it and would definitely return to compete again."
