Special mention
Not making the fast runners list, but certainly worth a mention is, Anthony ANTONIADIS from ING Lions, who, after a lot of hard work and serious training, improved his time in his first run back since S102R3 in March by 27:25, shaving 13:35 off his handicap. Impressive. Keep up the good work Anthony.
